Guest reviews
Very good
Bruges Gem
Liked: Good location, the apartment had everything we needed in the kitchen, it was the best kitchen on our travels so far. We really appreciated the opportunity to do our washing in the communal laundry. We wish we had been staying for longer.
Disliked: Lugging our bags up 2 flights of stairs.
Well equipped apartment in a working class area
Liked: Everything inside the apartment on the 3rd floor was perfect and new. The house is situated in a working class area, with lots of local shops and a genuine bakery close to it (boulangerie Anneesens).
Decent stay in Brussels
Liked: Fontainas Apartments is in a convenient location. Though it may seem sketchy when you first arrive, it is literally a 3 min walk until to get the some pedestrian streets full of restaurants and hip youngsters, then you walk a little more and you are near most of the main attractions in Brussels, such as the Grand Place. Central and South train stations are 15-20 min walk away and there is a subway/metro station 2 min walk away. Kitchen is equipped and facilities are all provided. We were 3 people so we had a double bed and sofa bed however the apartment was spacious enough for our luggage etc. The host is easily contactable via Whatsapp and responded when we had questions.
Disliked: As advertised, the building has 3 floors (but 6 flights of stairs). We were on the third floor and had to take our luggage up the very narrow staircases. Might be a good idea to ask which floor you will be on before you book if you are not ready for this. Also be aware that the washing machine is a shared one for all apartments located on the ground floor, not in each unit as listed on booking.com. Kitchen utensils were a little dirty when we arrived and kettle had limescale in it, we spent a bit of time washing these before use. Finally, the shower pressure in our apartment was terrible! I mentioned this to the host and he did say they would attend to it but alas it was not fixed. I mentioned it again before we checked out so hopefully the owner was able to fix this for the next occupants. Good luck!
Liked: Staff communication was very good
Disliked: The bed was small and uncomfortable
Dreadful apartment - not as advertised
Disliked: The building has been split into too many apartments to maximise income. The leading photos show a bright, airy apartment with high ceilings and plenty of space. On the booking confirmation email and the Booking.com “Rate Fontainas Apartments”, the lead photos are absolutely nothing like the apartment that I was given. It is gross misrepresentation. There are 47 photos and Apartment 4 is shown only in the FINAL 6 photos. The apartments are not all the same quality and should be listed separately. Apartment 4 is on the third floor (5 flights of stairs) with no elevator, which was only advised 1 week before the stay. You enter Apartment 4 into a small kitchen area with a very steep spiral staircase leading up to the bedroom area. The sink upstairs was too small to use without spilling water onto the floor, which is at the very top of the stairs. The shower is next to the sink, again at the top of the stairs, exactly where water is going to end up on the hard floor. A dangerous slip hazard. If that wasn’t dangerous enough, the staircase handrail as approached from the bed area tapers sharply downwards so that one could very easily fall down the steep spiral staircase. There is no protection, since the handrail in that area is around knee height for my 8 year old son, which is quite extraordinary. Furthermore, the stairs coming down from the bedroom were all at different heights, making it even more likely that you will fall. Head height was severely restricted and when the Velux window was open, it was difficult not to bump into it with a head or other body part since it was so low. We could not sleep with the window open due to the security risk since the roof was shared with, and accessible by, many others. Guests with any sort of frailty or small children should avoid at all costs. The safety concerns are unforgivable.
It lives up to our expectations
Liked: Location was great. In the center of everything. Stairs little bit steep for elderly. Can be communicated better or on booking. Com.
Disliked: Only the steep staircase. Very Beautiful though. Like the wood.
