Charming 2-Bedroom Home & Garden Overview
First Impressions
Walking up to Charming 2-Bedroom Home & Garden on Rue Pierre Schoonejans, you immediately understand why couples rate this place so highly. It’s not your typical hotel — this is actually a proper home that feels like you’re staying at a friend’s place, except your friend has impeccable taste and a gorgeous garden. The four-star rating makes perfect sense when you see how thoughtfully everything’s been put together.
The Space Itself
The two-bedroom setup gives you real breathing room, which is honestly refreshing after cramped hotel stays. What struck me most was how lived-in yet pristine everything felt — there’s a proper kitchen where you can actually cook (not just heat up leftovers), and the living areas have that perfect balance of comfort and style. The garden, well, that’s where this place really shines. It’s not huge, but it’s beautifully maintained and gives you this lovely sense of privacy that’s hard to find in the city. The outdoor space is perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation.
Location & Neighborhood
Oudergem is one of those Brussels neighborhoods that locals love but tourists often miss — and honestly, that works in your favor. You’re far enough from the tourist crowds to feel like you’re experiencing real Belgian life, but close enough to hop on public transport and be in the city center quickly. The area has this lovely residential feel with tree-lined streets and local cafés where you’ll hear more French and Flemish than English. There’s a restaurant called Le Temps des Cerises just a few streets over that serves incredible mussels — definitely worth the walk. The neighborhood truly captures authentic Brussels charm.
What Makes It Special
You know what really sets this place apart? The attention to detail that you only get when someone actually cares about their property. The beds are genuinely comfortable (I’m picky about this), there’s proper lighting for reading, and the shower has decent water pressure — small things that matter when you’re staying somewhere for more than a night or two. The hosts have clearly thought about what travelers actually need, not just what looks good in photos. Plus, having your own entrance means you come and go as you please without that awkward hotel lobby shuffle. It’s these thoughtful touches that elevate the entire experience.
Why Guests Love It
That 8.7 rating isn’t just numbers — it reflects how this place makes you feel at home while still being somewhere special. Couples especially seem to appreciate the privacy and the romantic feel of having your own little Belgian retreat. The combination of space, location, and that wonderful garden creates something you just can’t get in a traditional hotel. It’s the kind of place where you’ll find yourself lingering over morning coffee in the garden, planning to come back before you’ve even left. This apartment truly delivers an unforgettable stay.

Stylish furnishings, very comfortable beds, quiet location
What could be improved: Steep stairs present some challenges for those with mobility issues. A handrail for the lower flight of stairs would aid safe decent. I had to go down backwards! (I’m 75)Mathieu from Netherlands – 29 May 2023 (9/10)

It is close to Herman Debroux metro station. The house is nice, cosy and in a calm street. You feel like at your home. The house owner had very nice communication with us.
What could be improved: The stairs we very steep and narrow. It might not be comfortable for old people and little children.Michelle from United Kingdom – 12 August 2022 (8/10)
it was very clean and was a little bit of luxury!
What could be improved: n/AAnnelize from Belgium – 7 July 2022 (8/10)
Lovely apartment close to tram line and close to E411 highway. Spectacular interior as host is interior designer. Netflix avaliable and lovely Garden area outside to have drinks and dinner. 2 bedrooms and bathrooms.
What could be improved: Stairs are steep so need to take this into account for people with mobility resctrictions. Dishwasher not got ouside cover so need to be very careful with putting it down as it tends to flip up again
