All of the previous great reviews are spot on. To begin with, as others have said, the apartment is in a great location. Five minute walk to two metro stops, a mall across the street, and cafes and bistros all within a few minutes walk. In the mall there is a grocery store with anything you may need for your stay. The apartment is in a more residential area so when it is time to get some rest there is no problem with noise coming from the street. The apartment itself offers everything you need for your stay. Two full bathrooms, completely equipped kitchen and more than enough room for a family, or as in my case four adults, and was very clean.
One thing that concerned me was the apartment allows smoking. I was staying with three other adult family members and we are all non smokers. I messaged Michel and asked if there would be any residual smell from smokers that may have rented before us and he assured me there would be none. Just as he said there was absolutely no trace of smoke in the apartment. So if you are looking for apartment and are non smokers, don't let the fact that this apartment allows smoking keep you from renting. You will never be able to tell that someone may have been smoking in the apartment.
That brings me to maybe the best thing about renting this apartment, and that is the host Michel. Every time I had a question Michel got back to me within minutes. I once forgot about the time difference between my home and Michel's, and sent him a message, which because of our time difference, was not during the day. Michel still got back to me within minutes. I cannot say enough good things about having Michel as a host. He is everything you can hope for in a host and more.
