My experience wasn’t very good.
Let’s start with the positive things:
The neighborhood is very lively. Full of nice cafés, boulangeries, restaurants and so. Super central with a lot of bus stops and metro stations nearby. Very well connected.
The apartment has good space for two people and a comfy couch, a great screen and projector where you can stream films and tv series from your personal phone.
Maxime was very communicative and reply always very promptly.
The negative things now:
When we arrived Maxine told us the cleaning lady had arrived a bit late so when we got there she was still cleaning. She was very nice but I think the haste to finish soon and leave was the reason the apartment wasn’t very clean. Maxime left the apartment less than a hour before. There was a strong smell in the whole apartment. A mix of cigarettes and a lot of scented oily stick diffuser. (Maybe that’s why they were so many across the whole apartment)
We didn’t have any toilet paper , there was just some kitchen paper towels instead 😢😞 next to the WC. We had to buy a whole package so we can use it. The kitchen towels were filthy and the couch duvet too. We had to run a washer cycle before using it.
The photos on the listing are not updated. There is way more stuff in the room and the living room making it a bit overwhelming. It felt dirty and smelly. The fact that Maxime just had left and that the cleaning wasn’t very good made our stay a bit uncomfortable.
Maxime told us other people where coming right after we left. We believe if Maxime rents his place a lot, then the correct thing would be taking care of the neatness more “Hotel Like” Because you can feel a lot of people pass thru there.
During the week end there was a lot of noise until 1am because they are a couple of bars on the street below the windows and the apartment being on the 1st floor it was quite noisy. During the night it was so hot that we couldn’t sleep with the windows open, because of the noise.
I wouldn’t stay here again. And I don’t really recommend it. They are pros and cons but make your own judgement.
