Julien was a wonderful host and his studio was perfect for two people! It was exactly as pictured and the building was quiet. The neighborhood felt a little bit unsafe at times, especially later in the evening with lots of people in the streets, but the apartment itself is tucked on a side street and in the back of a courtyard with multiple keyed entries. Toward the end of our stay, we noticed that the shower was draining a bit slower, but nothing too bad. Highly recommend this studio, especially for the great value!
