Pros: nice location on a safe, quiet street in a lovely neighborhood close to Notre Dame and Luxembourg Gardens; really close to metro; easy self check in with thorough photo instructions and a lockbox; very responsive host who helped answer questions quickly; good amount of space for our group of 7 with 4 bedrooms and 2 great bathrooms; well-equipped apartment
Cons: the wifi signal was not strong enough to support 7 phones at once, but worked well with just a few devices at a time; we were given only 1 set of keys which was very inconvenient, especially because you need the key to lock the door from both the inside and the outside... it made it challenging to have members of the group coming and going at different times; the dryer shut off mid-cycle and needed to be restarted several times to dry clothes; the apartment does not have windows that open (ventilation system and fans worked well, but would have been nice to have fresh air); neighbors upstairs demand silence after 11pm; toiletries not provided
Overall, Mathilde's place fit our group of 7 well. In general we had a good experience, but there are a few things I wish we had known to expect before we booked the apartment. No issues were major, but a few adjustments would make the stay more comfortable!
