The majority of our stay at Philippe's place was good: the apartment is located in a very central area in the city, close to the metro and many stores. Space in the apartment was a bit tight, but it is definitely livable with three people. Internet is fast and reliable, showers have hot water, there is room to cook, and the apartment complex has (paid) laundry machines.
However, there were some downsides. In the winter, the apartment can get quite cold and space heaters are needed. Two interior doors of the apartment cannot be closed, probably due to humidity expanding the doors. Also, the apartment has low electric output such that only one burner can be used at a time.
The biggest problem was that of mold, and the uncooperative nature of the host. The apartment is extremely humid and has poor ventilation, which is a big problem in the en-suite bathroom and master bedroom, where we discovered significant mold growth around the rooms. This mold had been negatively affecting my health throughout my stay, and I did not realize why until I discovered it. Upon reporting it, the host recommended that I clean the mold myself at my own expense. After I cleaned the mold myself for the sake of my health, I requested compensation from the host for the cleaning supplies, but the host ignored my request. But worst of all, after the end of my trip, the host filed a damage report asking for compensation from me and used the pictures that I took documenting the mold against me, even though I had cleaned the mold myself.
If you decide to stay here, please search thoroughly for any such cleanliness issues during your stay, or be prepared to defend yourself from accusations of the host once you leave.
