Benoit (and his friend Pavel, who welcomed us) is a wonderful person. Very helpful, does his best to provide the best stay possible.
The apartment is in a perfect location - it doesn't take longer than 8 minutes to get to the Louvre Museum on foot. During our whole week there, we seldom used any means of a public transportation.
Regarding the apartment itself - the photos seem to be taken right after its renewal, which took place almost 4 years ago. It does look a bit worse right now, especially the bathroom.
Having said that, everything is in a working order and we haven't had any problem with any of the amenities. It was also clean and we were provided with fresh linen and towels.
Though, it's also worth pointing out that all the drawers, cupboards, etc. were full of Benoit's stuff. There was no space anywhere to put our things, which was a bit daunting at first.
It's not solely an airbnb apartment, Benoit lives in it on a normal basis.
To sum up: at first we felt a bit intimated, but after a day there we could no longer complain. It quickly felt like home.
