Home truths
This home is perfect for longer stays, with a minimum booking of 30 nights.
This home is on a mobility lease and is only available to those studying or travelling for work – you’ll need to provide proof from your university or employer.
As is common in France, the toilet is separate from the bathroom.
This home has an open-plan theme throughout, meaning the bedroom is semi-open to the rest of the space, so privacy is limited.
