Spotahome's opinion

The cute and central

Because I want a cosy home close to the action

Will I like it here?

It would be hard not to.

Looking for a living space all about fun-sized functionality? Keep it simple, life is happening all around you here.

Really? Tell me more...

You will love this functional space. Enjoy meals in the sunny dining area, then climb the stairs to the sleeping area. To save space, your wardrobe is down by the kitchen, and you've got a space maximising sofa bed.

We think it’s ideal for city slickers looking to have plenty of fun. Grab your walking shoes, you can get to the beautiful Grand Place in just 12 minutes. Plus, you're across the road from an enormous shopping centre.

Your top 3 reasons to live here:

  • The kitchen has a cute dining table.
  • You've got a sofa bed to save space.
  • You're on the edge of the city centre, close to the City 2 shopping centre.

But you need to know this...

  • This apartment is on the 2nd floor of the building, which doesn't have an elevator — who needs a gym membership?
  • This apartment is pretty small — at least you'll save a ton of time on the vacuuming.

And this...

  • There's no washing machine or dryer here — time to find your local laundromat.
  • There's no oven or dishwasher either — this might not be the best spot to host dinner parties.

Your Home-checker, Victor, said:

“I loved this property. It’s very close to a huge range of shops and very well connected by Metro and tram. There's storage down by the kitchen, and a nice sofa bed."

Help me make up my mind...

This is a cosy 2nd floor, studio apartment on Rue de Malines, Brussels. It boasts a fully equipped kitchen with a dining table, and a sleeping area with a sofa bed on the upper floor.

This property is ideal if you're looking to experience an amazing central location, without breaking the bank. Walk to iconic spots like the botanical gardens and Royal Gallery of Saint Hubert with ease.

What we liked the most

  • Enjoying breakfast in the sun — take a seat and start your day in style.
  • Folding the sofa bed out at night — then folding it up to save space during the day.
  • Walking to all your favourite spots — the Royal Circus is perfect for fans of dance, comedy and live music.

Things to keep in mind

  • This apartment is on the 2nd floor of the building, which doesn't have an elevator — who needs a gym membership?
  • This apartment is pretty small — at least you'll save a ton of time on the vacuuming.
  • There's no washing machine or dryer here — time to find your local laundromat.
  • There's no oven or dishwasher either — this isn't the best spot to host dinner parties.
