The two room place is clean. It is well stocked with good storage. (The only thing we missed was a kettle for tea.) It is also well located; near the metro and close to a busy bistro with coffee and bistro fare during the day and music, football, karaoke some nights. (This also means can be a bit noisy with windows open and a bit hot with windows closed, but what else can one expect in Paris in the summer time?) We never met our host. The place is a dedicated rental. Check-in is convenient and involves using codes to access the building and located the key. Communication is prompt and helpful. We would stay here again.
