Serge met us outside the building and took us in to see the loft and showed us around - how things worked, where to find things in the building, etc. He gave great instructions for where to find and how to use very inexpensive long term parking close to the loft.
Everything in the loft is spotless, with comfortable furniture and lots of space to spread out. Serge generously provides everything you need to feel at home. Lots of maps, tourist info, recommendations for things to do.
The building is very quiet inside despite being in a very lively area with lots of restaurants, grocery stores. It's a great neighborhood to walk around in with easy access to buses and the Metro. We were really happy with our stay.
