When booking Mike's place, I was surprised about all those hundreds of great reviews, but now I know why.
Mike's place was fantastic and anything you could ask for in the heart of Paris.
Mike is extremely attentive and responds very quickly to messages.
His place may not be very fancy but it is definitely cosy and we loved staying there. It has all the basic amenities.
Just for the ladies: there is no full length mirror, but there is a big mirror in the lounge.
There are two flight of stairs to walk, but it wasn't a problem for us.
You can't beat the location. Mike's apartment is within walking distance to pretty much any sights, 5-10min to the Louvre. It is 50-60min to the Eiffel Tower, which would be nice along the Seine. We felt lazy and took the bus, but we did walk to Moulin Rouge and back which was about 60min in total (2.5km one way).
Staying in Mike's apartment really makes you feel like a local. There are quitea few restaurants near Mike's place and pretty much all the customers were French.
We had a really wonderful time in Paris and we would definitely stay at Mike's place again. Merci beaucoup!
