Matthieu is an excellent host, good to communicate with, extremely helpful and informative. He helped us with our luggage upon check in and check out and was available for us to contact throughout our stay. The apartment is located in an area which isn't what tourists usually would associate with Paris, however we really enjoyed our stay in the diverse neighborhood. There's lots of great places to eat (cheap too), particularly if you like Asian food. The apartment is large and spacious and is very well equipped. Bed is very comfortable and it is quiet at night time. Easy to travel to the more touristy areas via metro as it is literally at your doorstep.
