Flat was true to its description as most of the other commenters have mentioned. I was unable to meet Christine when I arrived, but she provided me with very clear instructions on where to find the key and how to get into the building. It was also great that she could remotely let us into the building so that we did not have to arrange for a time to meet--this is great if you're arriving at an odd time. The flat is clean, homey and ideal for 2 people. Perfect for a short stay and also in a great neighbourhood outside of the more touristy parts of central Paris. I highly recommend it for young travellers who are also interested in seeing the more authentic side of Paris.
