First, the location of this apartment is very central and it made it very easy to get everywhere we wanted to go using the metro. Veronique is very helpful and good with communicating. There is a fridge and some dishes. You also have the ability to make coffee and tea. This is limiting though as you cannot really make any food in the apartment. Not a deal breaker though.
There were some pretty big issues that would keep me from staying here again. First, the apartment is located right off a communal courtyard. There are people coming and going (very loudly) at all times of the night and day. Specifically waking you up all night long. The walls block very little noise. The apartment is very stuffy and hot with the windows closed, but with everyone coming and going in the courtyard outside it didn’t feel safe to leave open the windows. There is not a lot of room for belongings and suitcases. The drawers and closets still have belongings in them from the host, so are not available for your own clothes (except one small closet).
Ultimately, this was not the worst place to stay. It was very clean and well located. Veronique was a great host. It was not all that restful or comfortable though due to the above listed problems. I probably wouldn’t want to stay here again unfortunately.
