Check-in was easy and smooth; although Paul wasn't available, his friend Gabin came to meet me and show me around. The apartment is very basic, which was fine enough for a stopover, but not suitable for a longer stay. It was airy and bright and generally clean (other than a large dust bunny next to the be), but the bathroom could be better maintained and the kitchen could be better equipped. I needed to work in the afternoon but the wifi speed is so poor that I had to tether from my phone in order to even load my calendar or take video calls. Resetting the router only improved it slightly, but the internet was simply unsuitable for real work. I messaged about fixing the wifi or turning on the heat in the apartment, and while Gabin was very responsive and tried to help, he didn't know enough about Paul's apartment to be helpful.
