OMG, if this place is available while you will be in Paris, consider yourself very lucky! Matthieu’s place has everything you need: clean bathroom, comfy bed, fast WiFi, hot water, full kitchen, and 5x more space than any hotel will give you in Paris. It’s located on the 2nd floor, which I was surprised to learn meant it was up 2 flights of stairs and not just one. (Tip for fellow Americans: the ground floor is considered Level 0, thus Level 1 is equivalent to our 2nd floor and Level 2 would be equivalent to our 3rd floor. Did I just confuse you? Haha, my bad!) The tub wall in the bathroom is a bit tall, so I would say if you have trouble lifting your legs or climbing stairs, maybe this place isn’t for you.
The location is great as well. There are bakeries, restaurants, and markets all within a very short walk. It’s about a 10 min walk from Gare d’Lest, so rest assured, you should be able to get anywhere you need to go. It was pretty easy to get around considering it was my first time in Paris.

Matthieu is great to communicate with and will pretty much answer every question you will have. Please prepare to respect his home as you would your own and you will love this place! I would definitely stay again without a doubt!
