There was a sound, a beep, that was quite loud, I think it was from the power board. I didn't realize from where it was when they asked me, but they tried to help!

The location was very good! And the stuff, even if we didn't meet them, was kind, they send us mails to ask for our stay.

It started with the rejection (twice) of our request for early check-in through Booking.com only to find out one day before our arrival that it was possible to check in earlier as a paid service. It was quite disappointing but as we did not want to walk around Bruxelles with our luggage for four hours, we accepted that. They requested us the details of our credit card which unfortunately was not working for them (the same one that worked during our reservation on Booking.com). So by the time we landed, we did not have the code for accessing earlier the building and we had to walk to Smartflats offices. I express my disappointment to the guy who was only able to say "It is not my fault" and explained that his colleagues from the call center are picking up from Morocco and there is nothing he could do. The same colleagues who did not pick up any of the calls I had made in the previous days and were not answering the emails timely forcing our group to walk to their office instead of heading to the apartment. I showed the guy the calls I made, he took a picture and promised to file a report on that. Which was not actually reassuring nor a kind of compensation for the inconvenience considering that they still made me pay for a service (early check-in) that we did not get. In addition to that, I had to basically provide all the details of my credit card (including the CVV) as there was no other way to make the payment (no cash, no bank transfer, no POS available) and considering what had happened until then it wasn't reassuring to have them save the details. I will save the readers from detailed comments on the state of the apartment (dirtiness of the apartment, lack of kitchenware, decay of doors and windows, lack of basic maintenance, lack of the adequate number of towels, lack of a broom or basic tools for cleaning, the nauseating smell coming from one bathroom) as you can find them in other reviews.

Very beautiful apartment in a very good position. I will use the space in this box to add to the negative comments as the one below is full. The wifi was not working properly regardless of the fact I made clear in the emails that our group was on a business trip and we really needed a good connection. The experience we had was the farther you can imagine from being smart: lack of communication between the office in Bruxelles and the call center in Morocco; inability to communicate in a timely way with the staff; lack, partial or wrong information provided. It is a pity that such a beautiful apartment is left to such bad management and maintenance.

There was sewer odour in the shower, I think the plumbing needs a check.

Perfect location, excellent value for price.

1. The light switches were not working at all, so every time I wanted to turn a light on and off I had to do it through the circuit board. I notified the company repeatedly and was ignored - noone was picking up the phone or responding to emails. The WhatsApp number they claim to provide doesn't work. Completely unacceptable. 2. The shower room smelled very badly, I had to buy cleaning products to make sure it was bearable. 3. The overall level of cleanliness was poor.

The location is v good and the flat is spacious.

Our laptop bag was stolen in the lobby of the aparthotel. In vain, we asked for help on the +32 2 640 72 40 phone number, but nobody help us. Finally we called the police. On the spot, the police watched the video recording of 2 security camera images of the hotel, which clearly showed that 3 men appeared around our suitcases and one of them lifted our laptop bag and left. The estimated value of stolen items is aprox.3000 EUR. The fact is that the theft of our bag took place behind the code-locked and protected entrance door, on the premises of the accommodation provider, so not in public areas. Our experiences: there was cigarette smoke upon entering the apartment, the left armrest of the sofa is half broken, the edge of the sofa is torn, the red sofa is stained and dirty, the bulb was missing from the bedside lamp, the chair in front of the kitchen counter is torn, the sponge is visible, the patio door handle fell out, windows and curtains were dirty and dusty, the wall of the living room is knocked down in several places, loud music until 4:00 am, we got stuck in the elevator, etc. We wrote several letters to the aparthotel. We asked for help based on the liability insurance of the hotel. They didn't even reply to our letters. They were disappointing, indifferent and unethical.

it was dirty when we checked in. Moldy shower. Broken balance door. Broken sofa. Smelly sheets. Stained and worn bar stools. Kitchen sink wouldn’t drain. Gunk came up when the dishwasher was run. Terrible wifi.

Lacking alot of finishing touch. Door handles falling off, several lights not working, parasol not working, missing a lot of outdoor pillows and a minimum of kitchen equipment. We contacted smartflats regarding some of our issues. They responded and told us they would revert back. We did not receive any update.

Good space and and a nice roof terrace.

Air condition was lacking, got very hot very fast in the apartment. It would be good if there was some cleaning equipment available, for those that prefer to clean after their stay.

The location was perfectly placed in the middle of Brussels. Not too far from the nightlife on foot, max 20 minutes. The apartment was large, had a great view of the main street and an elevator to get to the top floors.

It is impossible to connect with the ’hotel’ agency. They do not pick up the phone, do not answer emails and did not respond to the provided WhatsApp number. It was too warm in the apartment at night, even if the heating off The sun shades did not work properly, so during the day it was boiling hot. The electric outlets are on impossible locations, no outlets near the bed. And only one available near the table. One outlet near the table was defect. The wifi modum was zooming too loud. The hallway smells like a Chinese kitchen. I asked for extra sheets for the sofa bed and did not receive these.

we didn’t adore the bathroom, it didn’t feel as nice as the rest of the apartment, But same as the pictures!

The main part of the apartment (bedroom-living room-kitchen) was very nice and modern, the kitchen is fully equipped so you can cook anything during your stay! it’s close to the center so you can easily see the whole city in 2 days!
