Good location, but premises lacks cozines and care.
Location was fine. Premises has a certain unique feel. Overall could be a very nice place to stay.
Tha bathroom was outside the room. I assume it was dedicated for the room, but going to the restroom required leaving the room. Headboard of the bed was covered in plastic. Bedsheets had some stains I asume from bleaching, but it was still not pleasant to sleep in. I could not find spoons or forks in the kitchen. Kettle would not turn of unleas plug was removed from the socket.

Wood property, warm
Location, room, bathroom,noise of the wood , our room was behind the bathroom so everyone entered made a lot of noise,

Very good stay
The position was very good and the room was cozy, for the price you pay it is very good value. Plus we had some problems opening the door at 10 p.m. , we called the staff and they explained everything on the phone, very helpful!
The floors and door are very loud and cracky, they make a little bit of noise.

This location was perfect for me and quite central, not far from metro and tram stations.
This is a room and a living room in a marter house typical of Brussels.
As indicated, the bathroom with the toilet was on thesame floor but outside the room, exclusively for this room.
The owner was very easy to reach and answer all my questions.
He also found my toilet bag that I have forgotten in the bathroom, so perfect service!
I did not expect much more.

I'll never book this place again and strongly suggest that potential bookers look at the bad reviews
nothing. terrible experience!!!
DISGUSTING DIRTY PLACE!!! If you booked the room with the city view recently and external bathroom PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE reconsider staying here. The room has BEDBUGS/FLEAS and is filthy. We had already booked our stay in September to find a review posted on here after the booking of a couple who stayed here a few days before in our same room who said they got eaten alive staying here. Upon reading the review the night we arrived we quickly ran to the mattress to find its seams lined with bedbug feces. We had to leave within hours of arriving and find a new place because of this.
The owner was completely and utterly rude and argumentative with handling the situation, this "guest house" is nothing more than an overpriced fleabag motel. As the other bad reviews on this page can attest. This isn't an isolated incident and seems to be a common occurrence with him and how he treats his guests as well as the state of the place. Any other smart and wise business would be quick and accommodating to find a resolution, but this is not the case here.
Lastly, do not be fooled by the photos posted in the description. They are false advertising for the actual miserable state the facilities are in for the inflated price he is charging. The bedding had gross stains that were initially covered by a throw blanket and clearly not washed. The towels in the bathroom were crusty and hard. The detail of two sofa beds advertised in the room description are a lie, same with the complimentary toiletries....also nonexistent other than a drab body wash bottle tucked away in a mildew-y shower curtain. I was in that space for a total of 2 hours and it was MISERABLE just like the owner's hospitality.
Receipts are in the reviews of other guests' experiences over the years experiencing with pretty much verbatim what I am sharing. 2.6/5 on Trip advisor, 3.6/5, 3.5/5 on google. Please go stay at other hotels!!!

Clean and fair for the price, will revisit.
Very clean and easy to access. We had the room on the ground floor which was huge and we also had a private bathroom. Everything was very clean and the instructions to get in were clear. I read past reviews and was a bit scared at first, but we can see that the owner has improved on the issues.
No utensils in the kitchen, so if you order take out make sure to ask for forks and knifes (although the night shop in the corner does sell some). I understand not having silverware, but some discardable ones would be appreciated. Also maybe some instructions on the door so the guests close it slowly, sounds like an explosion every time someone comes in or out.
8.0 / 10.0
A nice place for a quick stop in Brussels.
The room had lots of space, and the bathrooms were kept quite nice, also a short walk to station, and general shops and food.
The locks on the doors were a bit hard to tell for bathrooms if they were occupied.

We had a great stay and would recommend to anyone
The property was clean and well furnished, and the host was friendly and welcoming and provided good amenities
The hallways were loud and echoed, so loud guests could be heard often

Worth it!
I loved the house; it was beautiful inside and had beautiful characteristics. The location was perfect,, close to life but also quiet. The balcony was an added touch.
This is my personal thing. There are so many stairs, haha. Though we were on the top floor, they needed a better cooling fan.

Amazing! Totally loved the room and the view
I like the room! It was cozy and clean. The location was convenient. Only one tram away from central. The kitchen, bathroom and room were well maintained.
The kettle was old and had white sediments at the bottom.

Good place, no elevator for luggage.
The rooms are cozy, they have working heating. The bathroom is really clean and it has shared living room and kitchen. Fresh towels and bed sheets. The owners let us leave our luggage there after the check out while we left the city.
The stairs, we had 3 suitcases and we got the 4th floor no elevator. The stairs were really narrow, it barely fits a person going up so we had trouble carrying the luggage to our room. The location is good, near metro station but not walkable to any touristic spot. To Grand Place <30 mins walking.

In all a pleasant stay
Location was perfect for us. Lovely quirky old house with plenty of old features. Free Wi-Fi. Plenty of towels, toilet rolls etc
We booked for 3 people, luckily only 2 of us travelled because only 2 beds made up. The stairs really would benefit from being carpeted because they produce a lot of noise & other guests do wake you up with the noise. Sofa bed very uncomfortable

Very cozy house in an area with good transport (tram and metro just 5-10 minutes away). The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was shared with another room but was absolutely clean. Patrick was very welcoming and attentive.

Good for a short stay within each reach of central Brussels.
Well located, about 15 mins walk from Midi station and 10 minutes from Louise metro station. Rooms are adequately furnished for a short stay; bedsheets and towels provided; bathrooms are shared between two or three rooms. The kitchen is well equipped and there's a balcony. No lift, so you should only stay if you're prepared to climb stairs. Like all shared properties, you are dependent on the behaviour of other guests to an extent - but this was all fine for me. I only met staff briefly but Patrick was very friendly.
Nothing - see above for things to be aware of.

Good
Great (and expected to be calm) location, comfortable bed, tasteful design and decoration, helpful staff
Sound insulation is a big issue - every step in the staircase is heard loud and clear, and some rooms are only divided by a thin wall with wooden (locked) door. In our case, our neighbors were having loud sex between 2am-3am, so not great (but good for them)

4.0 / 10.0
Too expensive for an old accomodation with a remote cold bathroom
The positive sides:
Very friendly and really very kind Host, Good location; in the room there was sufficient heating.
The negative sides: The bathroom is not conveniently located outside of the room, one needs to use stairs in the cold corridor, during the winter night it is a deadly/difficult mission. The bathroom is very cold. The bed in room No.2 was almost broken, one can not sit on the other side it was not in working condition. The WiFi did not work well: during a Skype talk it went twice off (checked on two devices). The general state of the property is very old, the doors are not easily closed. The price is too high for a property in such a condition.
6.0 / 10.0
Good place at the price. As expected
Large room, well decorated and comfortable bed. Bathrooms are shared but are kept very clean and are very modern. In a good area close to attractions and restaurants.
It is a lovely place for the price but there is no sound proofing at all in the rooms so noises echo through all night.
