Superb character duplex in the European district

Spacious 2 bedroom duplex on the ground floor of a charming house, typically Brussels with a garden on the street side and a small private garden at the back of the house. The house is located very close to the European Parliament and the Museum of Natural Sciences.
The apartment has just been completely renovated and comfortably furnished.
It is located 200 meters from the 'trendy' square in Luxembourg and 300 meters from the Place Jourdan where there are many activities and restaurants, supermarkets and small local shops open at night. Very important communications node.
Possibility of adding an additional bedroom in the basement (typically Brussels), just adjacent to the apartment and where can comfortably accommodate 2 additional people, with cable TV, separate individual WC and double bed.
(See photos of the basement on the site).
The additional room is optional (30 € / night) but compulsory for groups of more than 7 people. Payable in cash upon arrival.

The price decreases according to the duration of the accommodation and the price is planned for 2 people, supplement of 15 € / night per additional person.
It can perfectly suit a group of friends, large families (possibilities to accommodate 8 to 9 people) wishing to meet for exceptional events or to visit Belgium, a group working with the nearby European institutions.
Also ideal for expatriate families (special prices on request) looking for long-term accommodation for installation. We could also gladly help you in this process given our knowledge of Brussels).
Arrival possible after 10 p.m. but supplement of 30 Euros.
We have two parking spaces 180 meters from the house that we rent each with an additional € 10/24 hours if necessary.
Dogs and cats welcome (30 € extra).

Excellent location, sleeping issues

The location of this property is fantastic! These may be common challenges with the age of the property but cleanliness and comfort were real issues. There were spiders and spiderwebs all over, especially in the basement. We killed a plethora of spiders before we could go to bed. The floors are dirty and we had to wear socks or our feet were dirty. There are no screens (Europe issue) so lots of mosquitos, bees, flies and moths came in when we opened windows (no AC and very stuffy and bad moldy smell in basement from bathroom and not very clean towels or bedding). Pillows missing pillow cases and no top sheet to keep you from not fresh comforters. When we came we were told not to use the single bed because it’s uncomfortable. Very true! The queen bed in the basement is more of a double so my husband took the thin cushion from the single bed and had to sleep on the ground upstairs (too dirty in basement) because the bed didn’t fit 2 adults comfortably. Definitely would not sleep 9 comfortably. We only had 4 and son had to use the couch. Only one toilet and shower in the basement. Stairs very loud. Every time someone had to use the toilet it would wake people up. The washer and dryer are shared and can have long waits. Dryer takes up to 3.5 hours and washer is 1-2.5 hours (both small). We were up at midnight doing laundry and still had to hang things to dry properly. The only comfortable furniture in the house was the couch. The rest was very old and felt stiff and fragile.
Cushion moved upstairs to sleep on the floor
The single bed under the cushion. Open windows for fresh air. We saw rodent droppings outside and saw a mouse in the garden and were nervous nothing blocks things from entering basement. Very dusty and lots of spiders.
Basement with very old and not clean or comfortable bedding. Struggled to sleep every night.
Communal washer and dryer with potential long waits.

Lovely Duplex in a Great Location with Helpful Host

We had a great stay at this lovely duplex in Brussels. The accommodations were beautiful and comfortable, and the host was incredibly helpful in securing parking for our van. There was a bit of initial confusion—we had expected three private bedrooms within the main apartment not counting the sleep Sofa, but the third was located upstairs and required a small additional fee. In the end, everything worked out wonderfully, and the space suited our needs. The location was also perfect, with the Tootbus hop-on hop-off stop just a short walk away. Highly recommend!

Short stay in Brussels

We very much enjoyed our stay at the flat. We arrived at separate times due to flts, I checked in first at a prearranged time with Christine. Since I read the full listing I was aware of the tax and the additional cost of the third room and person and through my correspondence arranged the additional payment upon arrival. The set-up is unique, and suited us. As the early riser I stayed in the room next to the kitchen since I would be the one making coffee first, my sister arrived last and stayed downstairs. My adult nephew stayed in the extra bedroom, up the stairs from the flat. We had a slight screw up when we accidentally locked ourselves out, Christine was responsive and saved us within a very reasonable timeframe. We were very thankful. The area was quiet and woke up to birds singing. That said also walking distance from all the upper level sights and very close to transport. We stumbled upon a lively area with many restaurants including one serving moules, was very fun. We also followed some local recommendations, which we enjoyed.

We had a great stay. Communication with the host prior to arrival was excellent, and they were very helpful. Pictures were very accurate, and the building was clean and secure. Location was outstanding, and it was within walking distance to everything we were looking for (shops, restaurants, sites, etc). Internet was high speed and reliable

Charming European House

If you want a charming, traditional European row house you got it.Beds are full size, and quite creaky. Not a big deal, just be aware that they are not premium beds or bedding. House was very clean.Be sure to ask for shampoo and soap upon checking in, we didn’t have any. Also the laundry in the listing is actually shared laundry in the basement. We couldn’t use it because it was in use each time we tried.

Be careful with the number of rooms indicated!

Be careful with the number of rooms indicated!! Unfortunately, it is mentioned multiple times, and very prominently, that the property has three bedrooms, but this information is incorrect. You have to look in the fine print of the description to find out that the third one is optional. What a bad surprise upon arrival, and what a disappointment during discussions with the owner. Be careful!

Great location, stylish property

We had a super experience with our host whose communication was excellent. We were a bit disappointed on check in to learn that the single bed was only really intended for children (whilst it was big enough for a small adult it wasn't all that comfy). The apartment was well cleaned and had some basics in the cupboard (eg coffee) but possibly due to the bathroom being in the basement it did have a slight smell of drains. Our host very kindly let us leave our bags in the apartment for a few hours after checkout time to allow us to do some last sightseeing.

Great Brussels location!

Wonderful location. Quiet apartment. Hosts were friendly and communicative. They responded quickly when we had a question. Well stocked and beautiful little back yard garden. Washer/dryer are shared with other guests and if you desire all three bedrooms be sure to read into the listing further as the extra bed/bath are upstairs and require extra fee. This was a little confusing for us at first. So close to trains and buses and metro. We loved our stay here!!
