Meet Samah
Outgoing, Cultured, Open minded
This is my home, so it's a personal space that I take care of very well. I also work from home, and I rent out the room to cover my rent, so I am not trying to make a business out of it ;)
On a typical day...
I won’t be home a lot.
When I host guests...
I like to chat with them when they are home but have my own things going on.

A beautiful house with lots of charm and a terrace and view facing south. The two bedrooms are positioned on either side of the house, so plenty of privacy. The room has a 140cm bed, an open closet, an a couch to hang out on. The kitchen is very well equipped and some of the basic spices and herbs are available for guests. There is a washing machine, a bathtub, and separate toilet. There are many indoor and outdoor plants that make the house very cosy. The apartment is in a building with a secure entrance and an intercom system.

About the Area
Ixelles is a unique part of Brussels because it is very well located; the central station, the EU Quarter, and the main university ULB are all few stops away by bus (or a short walk by foot).
The house is on a quiet side street, but the main Chaussée d'Ixelles has everything: Retail and book stores, all kinds of supermarkets (bio, chains, and specialty stores including Asian, Arabic, Eastern European...etc. And a wide choice of cafes and restaurants... you are really spoiled for choice here.
The area has recently been regenerated, but the vibe is still quite mixed with old and new residents. And you need a walk on the greener side of life? The near by ponds offer a lovely walking path and the large southern forest the Bois de La Cambre is a 5min bike ride where you can walk on and on for hours.

House Rules
Please feel at home, I can offer you coffee if you are coming for a few days, and the kitchen is available for simple meals. If you stay longer of course that is a different matter. I am generally a quiet person, with occasional dinners, so I expect the same. You can smoke on the terrace, and anything else can be discussed in person!
Smoking Rules
Your host is a non-smoker.
Smoking is not allowed.

I absolutely loved my stay at Samah's place. The place is cosy and feels like home. The communication with Samah was smooth and effective. Samah is a very kind, funny and interesting person. I highly recommend staying at her place!

How do I book?
Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.
When do I pay?
Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 250 $£€ for longer term bookings) and a 25% deposit using a choice of payments: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal. The deposit is collected in advance on behalf of the host to protect against no show or late cancellations (within 7 days of arrival). You then pay your host the balance due on arrival. The 25% deposit payment is made to the host 2 business days after your scheduled arrival date. This deposit payment will only be refunded if you cancel the booking at least 7 full days prior to arrival.
When can I share my contact details?
Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
