My wife and I stayed for a week at Mathieu's place in early September and we were very pleased with our decision to stay there. We felt the value for the price was quite high. His place was just as advertised and there were no surprises upon arrival. A friend of Mathieu's was there when we arrived to check us in to the apartment. Pierre was very friendly and welcoming and was responsive via text during our entire stay when we had any questions. We appreciated both Mathieu's and Pierre's flexibility on our earthly check-in, especially when our flight was delayed several hours delylayuing our arrival into the middle of the work day for Pierre. The location was great. Right next to Belleville, the apartment was within 5 minute walking distance several metro stations including the 2 and 11 metro lines. There were also many good bakeries, bars, and restaurants close by to enjoy. The neighborhood felt very safe to us, even when we came back to the apartment late in the evening. The apartment itself was just as advertised. The bed was very comfortable and although the bathroom was small, it was also very clean and modern, and the water pressure in the shower was great. We would recommend Mathieu's place to friends and would definitely stay there again.
