I was met by Veronica, Edouard's mother as it turned out that he lived in Dubai.
Veronica was lovely, she gave me full instructions on how to get to the flat and waited for me kindly when my train was delayed by 30 min.
Pros:
The flat is very quiet you couldn't hear any noises, bed is very comfortable, constant hot water in the shower and the rest of the flat, Wi-fi worked well, great location, easy access to public transport, supermarkets, restaurants, cafes.
Cons:
Temperature is regulated by the building, so it wasn't very warm which is out of the host's control and it's understandable but I have to be honest in my review for the benefit of both guest and host.
I feel that the place can do with a more thorough cleaning. There is carpet everywhere even where the toilet is which made it smelly and the shower drain needs unplugging.
I had problems with the lights as the two which were supposed to light the majority of the flat didn't work, when I asked Veronica if they could be fixed I was told that an electrician was needed and it wasn't going to be fixed while I was there as she had left Paris just after she checked me in, it was very inconvenient for me as I was there for a week.

The flat is actually on the 6th floor and you can only take the lift to the 5th floor and then have to walk up a flight of stairs but luckily Veronica helped me when I checked in and the lovely porter when I checked out other wise it would've been a nightmare especially if you suffer from vertigo as I do, also that part of the building seemed to be where the worker used to live in the past or something like that as it had more the 60 flats and most were not numbered and you have to walk through a maze like corridors which didn't feel very safe trying to find the flat at night .

All in all it was good and Veronica was kind enough to let me check out at my convenience, I'm grateful for that as it helped me a lot.
