Took a break in Belgium in December. Been there when I was a kid and I vaguely remembered it. So we thought, why not pay another visit. Besides, we also had friends working there whom we wanted to meet up.
From the moment we reserved the apartment online, right through to checking out, we had nothing but a smooth experience. Laurent, the only manager handling all three different Suite Homes was nothing less than hospitable and is quick to respond to all our queries and needs.
As far as the apartment goes, I thought we hit a jackpot with this one. We were given the "Maisonette" to stay and we were more than pleased with it. Very large room with an en suite bathroom and a handy washer and dryer. Downstairs, more than enough space for the two of us with an equipped kitchen, dishwasher, oven and yes, the Nespresso machine! Unlike other apartments we stayed throughout Europe, we were pleasantly surprised by the "kitchen fairy" who came daily to help clean up. So it's a full serviced apartment, which was great!
The only thing which they would probably need to do is to perhaps consider installing a shower door. The enclosure still wasn't enough to keep the water from spraying out beyond the shower compartment. You kinda have to "behave" and not practice your usual song and dance with the bath soap as a microphone in there!
Suite Home "Stephanie", compared to the other three types of apartments offered, was the best choice for us as it's conveniently located near the shops and boutiques, as well as the tram and bus services.
Worth mentioning is the easy check in and check out which we had no problems figuring out at all. We just had to make sure that we check the label on the keys and the door code and it's done! The wifi connection, which is a must for travelers, was also already included in the rental cost.
All in, this was one of the best apartments we've stayed in for a week in a European country and we will definitely stay there again if we ever visit Brussels again. We highly recommend it to all types of travelers! And do say hi to Laurent.
