Studio or apartment rental by the week:

Inter-Logement offers furnished apartments for rent by the week, fortnight or month.

N.B.: as well as the rent, you will be charged fees oreaching at the very least €100 and an annual subscription of €25.

The website Holiday flat offers a similar service with a slight difference. You can rent a room for a period ranging from 1 to 90 nights for a minimum price of €35 (depending on the area and the booking schedule) without any compulsory additional fees. Please note that while the apartments surfaces may slightly exceed 9 square meters, the toilets are often outside on the landing. Besides, an optional €35 subscription fee is necessary in order to benefit certain facilities such as the non encashing of the security deposit . An important list of various bonus services is also availabe but none of them is free, so be careful with your bill.
