The location of this flat is AMAZING! Could not have asked for a better place from which to launch our adventures around Paris during Christmas week. Mathieu was also great communicating with us about our arrival since he was not in town. Three downsides for us were a) clearly a smoker lives there and if this had been indicated, we had not noticed this before booking; and b) the water pressure in the shower is seriously terrible, but perhaps to be expected in an old building in Paris; and c) we felt like we were living in someone's borrowed house much more than some other airBnBs. For example, the family's food filled the fridge, their shampoo was in the shower, their clothes drying on the drying rack (which we folded and put to the side to hang our own washing). For some people, this may not be an issue but for people who want a more pristine "hotel like" experience, this may not be the place for you.
