Laurent's place perfectly met my need for a quiet, calm space close to the city center during a solo research trip. The apartment is perfectly situated away from the main thoroughfare but close to metro, bus, markets, jogging, etc. The space itself was beautiful: bright, tidy, well-tended and well-stocked (with a drip coffee-maker!), good vibes. The bedroom overlooks a courtyard and perfectly silent in the evenings. Laurent was also a fantastic host, friendly, attentive, informative, and always quick to respond to any questions. Highly recommended!
