Overall, this was a great experience! (I would give 4.5 stars if that were an option)
Sabri was very communicative, despite the time difference, and made sure that things were taken care of. The building feels safe and the neighborhood is so awesome. So many great places to eat, or sit and get a glass of wine or a coffee.
The kitchen is practical, the water pressure in the shower is good (though the bathroom is a little cramped--but, it's Paris), and there is a functional work space.
I stayed over a weekend and the neighbors were extremely disruptive and loud in the middle of the night at times--this, of course, is not a reflection of Sabri, but it did impact the stay a bit. Something to consider.
I would definitely recommend this place to friends, as the location is great, the space is everything one needs for a simple stay, and the price is right.
Thanks Sabri!
