Julian was very nice, and when I arrived, helped me up stairs with my luggage. After showing me the flat, he drew me a map of the city and included his favorite places to visit, eat and drink.

In order to get to the main part of the city, you must change metros at Hotel de Ville. This stop can get extremely crowded, including at 19hr when I was trying to head back to the flat. Some of the ceilings are pretty low, including the loft area where the bed is located, and the shower. I’m 5”6” and there was less than 20 cm between my head and the ceiling.
