Nice breakfast and good service when we took breakfast. Good location for sightseeing and citywalk at Brux. Also, it's easy to use train if we want to travel to other cities.

“Fabulous”
A fabulous friendly host and delicious breakfast. The room was full of light delightfully put together. The feel of the spaces was modern but warm, with just a dash of tradition. The collection of bande desinee downstairs in multiple languages was great fun.

“Friendly, warm and welcoming guesthouse in an excellent location”
Firstly the very warm welcome from Sophie, she’s friendly and helpful and makes some good recommendations. The room was cosy and well designed with more than enough storage for a few nights stay. Also it was warm which was very welcome on a very cold and snowy weekend in Brussels. Breakfast was lovely with a good choice of pastries, fruit, eggs etc. The homemade chocolate spread was delicious. Some people mention the stairs - this is an old building and while the stairs are spiral they are not especially steep or narrow and quite manageable (my husband and I are 68 & 71 albeit with no health issues and had the 2nd floor bedroom) Location is perfect, only a few minutes walk to the centre in one direction and the museums and galleries in the other. It’s also only a few minutes from Central Station should you want to visit other places in Belgium.

“Good fair place with great hospitality”
It was a pleasure to stay there. Thank you Sophie! We felt welcomed. Our hostess met us and shared good places nearby. Room was clean. Location also very good. Breakfast was good but I personally would add some meat to sweet stuff :-)
