Julien was very responsive and check-in went very smooth. I don't speak French really so my interaction with him was very limited. The place met the description and I slept very well. The living room is not a shared space as Julian sleeps on the sofa. I felt that Julian preferred having his guests and all their stuff upstairs which is maybe logical since this is his bedroom but it's not very communal. So it's an effective place for sleeping, cheap and the bedroom and bathroom are clean and good. Excellent view from the balcony is a nice bonus.
