A perfect location in the center of Brussels. I would only recommend it for solo travelers. The winding stairs are extremely narrow and the room small, but clean and quaint.

Stairs are very small and steep

Stayed in May 2024

Not for travellers who have larger luggage than cabin baggage because of the very narrow staircase. The bathroom was not very practical as the towels were on a floor stand that kept falling apart and that had to be removed to make space to take a shower. It would be more practical to put hangers on the wall. The shower curtain could be changed. During the 3 days we stayed, there was no personal contact with any staff and the garbage bin in the common kitchen had not been emptied so we had to fill our own plastic bags.

Excellent location, in the city center and 2 minutes from Central Station! The room was ok, quite clean.

Some simple details were missing, but I got used to it. Instead of a large box, it may have been better to put a small table and chair, for which there should be space enough.

Everything was miniature in this BnB. I felt two times oversized when twirling up the wooden stairways. Every floor has exactly one room. The room was large enough and the toilet and shower were a 'just fit'. If you like old, wooden, quaint and central, you may want to give it a try.

Steep stairs, as mentioned before booking. Not adapted to a big suitcase.

Excellent localisation. Original building. Very quiet despite the central location.

Shared kitchen facilities could be improved ie, faulty microwave door, kettle not always working, and freezer not usable due to being completely frozen. Also, curtains barely blocked out light so sleeping was difficult. The size of the room and bathroom were small.

A text the day before arrival advising not to take large suitcases up the 200 year old stairs is unacceptable. We paid for our room so had no other option. The staircase was rickety and spiral so we struggled,

A bit noisy late at night.

Its location and its very original ‘structure’ of the building (spiral staircase, one room per floor etc…)

We loved everything

We LOVED L’Epicentre. Beautiful room, perfectly located, so nice. We had every comodity we needed, everthing was clean and the host is super nice and attentive. Even though the area is busy, the windows isolate the noise perfectly and we slept amazing. We loved staying in a house with history and we saw this in the stairs. Disclaimer: we found that if we were bigger people, it would have been harder to fit the stairs as they are so narrow and steep.

It s absurdly difficult to find the entrance based on the description. There is not number on the house, and at least a photo of the art gallery that is the actual entrance could help. The stairs are even difficult to climb with a small hand luggage, very narrow - it is rather a ladder in 21 century standards.

It is a nice room, clean and nicely arranged, in a nice location for tourists.

Problem is description on booking. It should state----It is nice place for healthy young climbers with 1 kg bag.

My recent stay at L'Epicentra through Booking.com was a bit of a mixed bag. On the positive side, the location couldn't have been better - just a stone's throw away from the central square. The room is nice and clean. However, some significant issues weren't adequately communicated before booking. Firstly, there was a complete lack of signage on the street indicating the location of the facility, which made finding it quite challenging. But the biggest issue by far was the accessibility - or lack thereof. Nowhere in the booking information did it mention the extremely narrow and steep stairs leading up to the third floor. It is described as something special to have, but no warning. As someone with medical conditions, I found them challenging to navigate, and I can only imagine how difficult it would be for someone with more severe mobility issues, vertigo, with families with small children or heavy luggage. I must admitt, cleaning lady hepled me with my bag. I was offered by the owner to change facility, but it was at the time for me inpossible.

Nothing

Nicely located

Stayed in March 2024

Everything went really good.

The location is well connected, specially if you want to be close by the Gare Centraal. The location is quite beautiful with a touch of an old / artistic building. I really liked it because was quite practical for me. My only recommendation is that if you take this accommodation, you do not travel with big luggage; otherwise you can damage the stairs or you will have a difficult moment training to carry it up / down. Same way I wouldn´t recommend it for kids or old people.

It felt cavernous, like most places in Amsterdam. There was also a damp smell

Good location

Very tiny bathroom. I understand that the stair between floors is classified at the Unesco patrimonio. Never the less the stair is way to steep and way too narrow to be used as accommodation for tourists. I could not take all my luggage to my room due to the narrowness and the steepness of the stair and needed to leave part of my luggage at the entrance hall during my stay. Sorry to say but I party needed to crawl up the stair going to my room.

Outstanding location. Nice and clean as well as very comfortable bed. Great to have access to this well equipped kitchen.
