"Cons: I BOOKED AN APARTMENT AND WHEN I WENT TO DO CHECK IN, THET SAID YOUR APARTMENT NOT AVAILABLE SOMEONE ELSE BOOKED IT, I PAID ONLINE TO THIS APARTMENT AND THEY CHARGE ME THE FULL PAYMENT. BAD ADMINISTRATION!" ~Ahmed
"Pros: We had a wonderful 2 nights stay at this beautiful duplex apartment in Antwerp’s historic city center. The location is absolutely perfect - walking distance to all major attractions and surrounded by great restaurants, bars and cafes.
- Check-in was seamless and hassle-free.
- Prompt and polite response from the owner when we had a question. Thanks for that!
- The air conditioning in all rooms was a lifesaver during our visit.
- The kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need including a coffee machine, dishwasher, microwave, oven, fridge, hob, pots and pans, and all necessary cutlery.
- The large windows fill the space with natural light and there is so much space!
- A hairdryer provided was convenient for us, 4 girls!
We were very happy with our choice. Perfect for couples or small groups who don’t mind steep stairs and appreciate staying in Antwerp’s historic heart.
Cons: There are some practical aspects to be aware of:
- The apartment is located on the top floor of a historic building with no elevator, requiring you to climb narrow, steep stairs - this could be challenging for those with mobility issues or heavy luggage. Or it could be a good exercise 😁
- The layout has the kitchen and living room on the second level, so you need to walk up the steep stairs.
- For bathroom facilities, there’s one toilet (without a sink) and one separate bathroom with shower and sink. This setup might be inconvenient for larger groups.
- One of the bedrooms faces the street, which can get moderately busy in the evenings, so light sleepers should pack earplugs. Although the closed windows take a lot of noise out. The other bedroom was very quiet.
- Only one towel per person was provided - having two would be more practical for longer stays.
- The apartment doesn’t have a washing machine, so plan accordingly for extended visits.
The apartment’s character, prime location, and excellent amenities far outweighed any minor inconveniences." ~Vira
