  : The room looks nice, it has double bed, sofa + table, another table, wardrobe. There are tissues, coffee, tea, The bathroom is clean. The location is 15-20 min. by tram from the city centre. Tram station is in front of the building. The nearest metro station is 5 min. walking.
  : The host sent me the instruction how to enter the house and room too late (few hours before I had to arrive). Unfortunately, I don't have internet in my mobile phone, so I couldn't know about that. I called him, but his English it's not so good. After I intended to enter the house several times following his instructions and couldn't do it, I make him several questions about that (e.g. is it this or that? what now?, etc.), but there was no answer. So I had to do by myself until I didn't figure it out how to do it. I came earlier in Brussels to have my own time and I wanted to be in the room. But there was no heating during the day. Then I contacted the host and he said the cable probably had been disconnected, and he would send his sons to fix that. Heating appeared. But next day again there was no heating. The maid came to clean the room and I send a message to the host, after that, heating appeared. The zone (location) is near the city centre, but in the street where is the nearest shop (a minute form the house) there are homeless people sleeping on the street, street sellers. There are some plates, glasses, forks, spoons, but it's not possible to wash them.

  : Very private and amazing value for money. A bit of a walk out of city centre, but i enjoyed that. Food/supermarkets and parks are all in short walking distances.
  : There was a random cat meowing in the house at one point in the night.

Very Good

  : The host communicated everything and made everything clear without me needing to ask. The location is well connected to the centre via public transport. The Atomium isn't too far away on foot. The house was generally very quiet and I never needed to wait for the shared bathroom. The bed was comfortable and the room was spacious. The price I paid relative to the other options was very reasonable.
  : Whenever there was noise, it seemed quite loud from room. Without earplugs, I could hear the front door from the top floor every time it was closed and creaking on the stairs, with thebroad outside the front being quite loud at times. With earplugs and the window closed, I had no issue.

  : The guest house is located close to a metro station so it was quite convenient. My room was spacious and had everything I needed and even more than that. I had a coffee table, a couch and a couple of chairs.
  : It would have been nice to have met Ayse in person.

  : Stayed in the house 2nd time, and was happy to see the improvements based on previous reviews :) Great attitude from the owner, Ayse was very sweet and caring. For the very budget-friendly price, it was an excellent stay!
  : Alright, if you don't like planes passing your window in an early morning, maybe this is not a place for you - the airport is pretty close (I have no prob with that personally, but sensitivity levels may differ).
