I spent a month in this nice apartment in the beginning of my exchange studies. Most of the time I was there alone, one weekend my family came to visit, and we had three persons in the apartment.

Gerald's apartment is small but very convenient. Perfect for one person or a couple sharing the double bed, decent for groups of three. For groups of four I would recommend it if you are only looking for a place to sleep, but not spend much time. The sofa bed is very good, but if you keep it open, it takes almost 70% of the space in the living room, which is a lot in a small apartment like this. However, it is possible to sleep on the sofa without opening the second half, so with three people you won't face the same problem. The apartment is in the top floor, so consider that when booking (I would not recommend this to elderly or physically handicapped people). The only thing that I would recommend to improve inside the apartment is the wifi. Otherwise it works perfectly, but the problem is that you can have only one device connected.

The location of the apartment is good. Bus 81 goes directly in front of the house every five(ish) minutes, and it takes you to the city in 15-30 minutes, depending on the traffic and of course where are you going. The metro lines are also rather good ones, north-south goes from the same street, to take east-west line you can walk (or take the same bus or metro) to Place de Clichy, it's not even 10 minutes by foot.

The neighbourhood is quiet and residential, but also close to touristic sights of Montmartre and Pigalle.

Contacting Gerald was always easy, he responded always rather fast. Even when I managed to get the toilet clogged, he sorted it out the same day. (A pro tip for new residents: do not try to flush paper towels down the toilet bowl!) When I arrived to the apartment, I noticed after a few days, that there were a couple of mice in the apartment. The next day a friend of Gerald's came to give me some mouse exterminator things, and after that I saw only one mouse during my stay. Apparently the house management is now taking care of the problem.

All in all, I would recommend the place for people who want to stay close to the city in a quiet area.
