THE SHORT VERSION: I highly recommend this studio in a hip/upcoming neghborhood of Paris that is popular with young Parisians and University students. Good/clean place, good location, good value. THE LONG VERSION: We had a wonderful stay at this very cute, recently remodeled studio located conveniently in the north section of the 11th Arrondisement, just outside of the "Republique" neighborhood, near Place de la Republique. Antonio was a great host. He was very prompt to return emails and calls and quite friendly on the phone. I didn't get to meet him in person, because he was too busy working to meet with us, so his kind and personable friend, Bastien, showed us into the apartment. The apartment itself has all the necessities including plenty of clean towels, and, unlike many other options in this price range, seems newer and cleaner. My only complains were that I couldn't figure out how to use the wifi, or the password Bastien left for us was wrong. While the bathroom and kitchen were very clean and the apartment as a whole was pretty clean, the floor in the main room seemed a little spotty. Still, overall quite clean compared to most other places I've stayed on Airbnb and I do recommend this flat and Antonio in general as a host, especially for those seeking an excellent value.
