I had a mixed experience at Thomas's apartment. My biggest issue is that I discovered there were two rooms for hosting Airbnb guests, and this was not mentioned anywhere in the listing. As a single female traveler, this would have stopped me from renting the property. That said, Thomas is VERY nice, and he was very patient with me when I lost the keys to the apartment (don't do that - it cost me 80 euros to replace the special key). The apartment wasn't very clean, unfortunately - not the room, not the bathroom, not the separate toilette. There were also some basic amenities missing, like soap and a towel near the bathroom sink. Also, it is a little smaller than it seems in the pictures, and the only common space is the kitchen. I really wish there were at least a desk in my room, but the bed was comfortable. The location was fantastic - literally a minute from Saxe Gambetta, which is a major metro station. There's also a great brasserie around the corner. It was nice to have an elevator to the third floor. All in all, if you're interested in a cheap central location, this is probably a good choice.
