Cédric apartment was cozy and functional. The apartment is located steps away from the metro system, a supermarket, and lots of little restaurants. And yes, the rain shower is nice! Being it August, some of the restaurants and shops were closed, but a quick train ride to the heart of the city provided a lot of nightlife opportunities. Although did not meet with Cédric, he was in constant communication with us and his mother was a pleasure to deal with. The apartment is on the fourth floor and there is no lift in the building so you will have to carry your luggage up. I would definitely stay again at Cédric apartment again!
