Quentin was very quick to respond and kind. We unfortunately did not get to meet him and his dog. The apartment was very close to the train, which was convenient. The pictures taken on the website did not accurately depict the space, and it was dirtier than we expected. (All the dishes had dried cheese on them, the floors were oily, the bathtub had plenty of hair in it. Some of the material on the walls were coming off. Fortunately we were only there to sleep and out visiting Paris the majority of the time. The host, Stefan and Aurelia were nice. If you are looking for just a place to sleep for cheap, this could be the place for you just bear in mind it would not be the most clean. Important to know that the shower is shared with other guests and the toilet is separate on the other side of the apt also shared with everyone. We did have privacy, the elevator in the building is convenient, and the area was nice.
