Alexandre's place is very well located, you can get to everywhere by walking, and are right on a metro if you prefer to take transit. It is a basement so you can expect there is a bit of mold but leaving the bathroom fan on helps and in the summer opening the windows would help too. The neighbours upstairs can be a bit loud but it will only be a problem if you sleep in later like I tend to. Overall I think it's very good value for money especially if you will be mostly spending your time exploring the city.
