Xavier is a fabulous host! He let us check in early and left a key for us at a nearby shop so that we could drop off our bags. He kindly came over to greet us and we were able to have a drink with him at a local bar and chat. He is a friendly and kind person and it was a pleasure to meet him. His apartment is beautiful and spacious with wonderful views. The building is beautiful and in a great location. We were able to walk most places, and the train is a short walk from the apt. Although it was just my husband and I, it is definitely big enough for 2 couples. Be aware that it is a 6 floor walk-up, so this would not be good for anyone who has trouble climbing stairs. I would absolutely stay at Xavier's home again. Merci beaucoup!
