“Great location and perfect lodging for a short stay”
Location was really good; close to restaurants, bars, tram stop, museums, but still on a quiet street. Bed was extremely comfortable, and the accomodation was spotlessly clean! Would definitely stay here again

“Uncomfortable and stressful state due to significant issues with cleanliness and privacy”
The bed was comfy, and the location is great—close to interesting cafés and bars, and within walking distance of the Old Town. The host also allowed me to leave my things before check-in, as an earlier check-in wasn't possible.

“Walked into hell”
The property was not as described and very disappointing. When we arrived at 4:11PM, the facilities were still being cleaned and the kitchen was a mess. I booked this place over a month in advance and had contact with the host the week of our visit. This should not have been a surprise to him. We left the property 4 hours after we arrived and one of those hours was spent on the phone to booking.com. The cleaner left just before we did, to give you an idea of the disorganisation. The rooms are not soundproof and the bathroom is not private. It does not lock. The room is located by the front door and you have to walk through the foyer and shared staircase to get to the bathroom and toilet. The kitchen is shared with the host (surprise!) and we were informed that we wouldn't have access to this area until the evening or the next morning. I got the impression from the host that really, we weren't welcome to use this area at all. The host was temperamental. He accused us of leaving a door unlocked - as we were going through it - although he admitted that he never told us about this "rule"! He threatened us with a camera he had pointed at the door? We proceeded to ask him about the inaccuracy of his listing. He admitted to using AI to generate the listing and took no responsibility his oversight and lying. This type of listing really should not be allowed on booking.com. There are a few negative reviews that I didn't see when I booked it as I was blinded by the high rating. Trust what they say. If you are considering staying here, I highly recommend that you carefully consider what you are getting yourself into.

My stay at this elegant townhouse was a true pleasure. The building exudes charm and character, blending classic refinement with modern comfort. My room was cosy and inviting, with an excellent bed that ensured a restful night’s sleep. The location is ideal—peaceful yet within easy reach of the city’s cultural highlights and main sights. What truly sets this place apart, however, is the host. Erudite, gracious, and attentive, he strikes the perfect balance between discretion and warm hospitality. His engaging conversation added an extra layer of depth to my stay. A wonderful place for those who appreciate comfort, character, and a touch of intellectual hospitality.

“Excellent historical house”
After a pleasant walk from the station, I was recommended the ideal dinner for my backpacking holiday, and had the best sleep of my journey. The property was clean, beautiful, in a lovely location, and the host was very welcoming. Perfect.

“The host is the bibliophile in this wonderful mansion”
Wonderful location close to the center of Antwerp (excellent tram connection) and just a stroll away from the KSKA. A variety of shops and restaurants nearby. Very warm welcome by a wonderful host that fulfilled any wish. Spacious double room, very clean bath, and access to a fully equipped kitchen, where you don't have to be alone but may also make cheerful experiences.
