ACCEPTABLE, but DO NOT REPEAT

Fridge is very small for groups +3. It does not have a kitchen, only a micro. I could clean the cupboards and put in some stoves. We didn't fit in 6 to eat and we had to sit on the ground, there were no chairs. Some cleaning was missing (dust, dirty dishes...) Had to wash dishes in the bathroom... No cleaning supplies (broom, esparto, dustpan...) TV not working. It's 45' from the center, passing through dangerous neighborhoods. The railings are very loose.

It was great ❤️🇧🇪

The location is not the worst, although the district can be scary in the evenings. In addition, hot water in the shower is a roulette (we hope it's only a temporary inconvenience)

The apartment lived up to our expectations, but we did not like that the owner (very nice) invited friends to the house on the first night and they were with music to a very large extent. To improve, I would have liked having a kitchen in the apartment.

Not much ... just sockets that need to be tidied up, because wires were sticking out of the walls, which can be dangerous for any living creature, and a somewhat "wobbly wooden mezzanine fence".

The kitchen could be a little cleaner, clean towels, tea towels, tea towel, etc. And it should be clarified that there are cats in the house that can also come to the guest house.

There are no good cafes in the area. The area will be almost completely populated by residents of the east. Accordingly, the cafes are focused on Turkish and Arabic cuisine.

It is difficult to find a place on the street near the house, but although we had 2 cars, we were able to find places on the next street (rue Portaels).

See Beer Reaction above.

The location seemed close to the airport, but there are still many delays due to the busy morning rush hour. Wine glasses, plates and cutlery must be taken from your own kitchen. Tip: Make a mini kitchen unit. And fix the balustrade. The stairs to the attic are pretty interesting now. The light could be more comfortable.

Poor

The house is very big, but it was not looked after at all, a lot of things are broken and dirty, when we entered the house, it smelled terrible, they have 3 black cats, according to the photo, you must assume that they are in the house, which we did not know, we had to feeding him and collecting his excrement, as every day we came to the house, it smelled awful. The mattresses are not very comfortable. The house is big, and for the first few days there was not enough heating until we found out how it went up. We were greeted by a neighbor we had to look for and he only gave us the keys and ignored it. On the last day, the owners came, began to knock on the door, we opened them and they began to look at everything in detail and as on their shoulders, when the house was cleaner than we found it, since there were several broken things in the kitchen and very dirty like kitchen utensils. What offended us the most was that when we correctly told the owners about what happened to us, they responded unpleasantly to us and in the end insulted us, saying that he left us his house, and we must take care of him, but this the service we paid for, we did not understand either his reaction or his appeal, because at least we expected an apology or excuse for which we received only insults and bad manners. We do not recommend anyone stay here, as not only after we encountered this series of things when he informed the owner about it, he insulted us and shot us in bad ways, so neither welcome nor goodbye, we have all traveled a lot and they never accepted or treated us that way, much less checking the house like we did something to him when we were supposed to clean up and take care of his cats, as we believe that when you are traveling you want to have fun and are not responsible. As far as food is concerned, there was still a refrigerator full of food, most of it rotten that we had to throw away and half clean from other people who were already in the house.

For people who have problems with stairs, there are 2 floors to climb. This was not a problem for me

Another apartment, but with something special.

The location is far away and transport leaves you 8 minutes on foot. Due to my ignorance, I did not know that the house was being shared with the owners. Our room plus living room plus attic were on the third floor. The second slept the owners. But even though we didn't know it, we didn't care, my kids loved the attic, and if there was any mistake, it was that they were smoking inside and talking loudly. Some cleaning is missing.

Strange, but as Eduardo did, I thought it best not to comment...

The available space was old with old carpet and looked grubby when it wasn't. However, there was dust on the old bookshelves and the books he keeps as decoration. There was dust in the place where the coffee maker and kettle were. The dishes in the kitchen were poorly cleaned. We could have used the refrigerator, but it was full of food leftovers that we prefer not to use (as I said, the couple live in the house, so everyone has their own habits and hygiene). The bedroom door could not be locked, and the reserved space, despite the fact that two couples lived in it, did not allow for privacy. In other words, if you are traveling with relatives, it does not bother, but if they are friends, you need to organize how to go to the bathroom, change clothes, because it is impossible to isolate each other. And to go to the bathroom, you need to go down a very steep staircase and go to the bedroom of another couple. In other words, if you like to pee at night, it will interfere with the other couple. To be honest, it was an experience that I didn't really like. I value my comfort and privacy more. But for those who love hostels, this might be a great idea.

We feel betrayed!

On booking.com it is NOT obvious that you are sharing the whole house with the owners and three cats! We had a bedroom with a bathroom. But nowhere is it said that you need to divide the terrace and the living room. Very little is said about the "common kitchen". Patricia was there all weekend and you really didn't feel free. Also, three cats were jumping all over the place, even when we ate, they jumped on the table. Really disgusting! It was quite dirty everywhere, especially the kitchen was totally shaken and cat hair was plentiful. The highlight was that here on the website a parking ticket is offered for 5 euros per day. We specifically indicated in a personal message that we would like to take advantage of this. When we arrived, Patricia came out, asking several times that there was no ticket. So I had to take a regular parking ticket for 25 (!) Euro per day. There was no excuse, Patricia even claimed it wasn't much more expensive than using her parking ticket. In general, we feel cheated. The presentation here on the site is completely different. The photographs suggest accommodation only for you - on the spot in the house there is another floor between your own room and the kitchen-living room, where residents sleep.

This is an apartment that is also advertised on airbnb. The apartment owners share a common space and host. The unit offered for use is located on the third floor inside the apartment. The apartment is a bit old and it is obvious that it needs to undergo several repairs. There are restrictions on using the shared kitchen and not everything is clean and polished In addition, it should be recognized that the apartment is located in a Muslim quarter and creates an unpleasant atmosphere to move around freely
