Eric’s apartment is incredible. I will try to find the words to explain such a spectacular place. Let me start by explaining that I am very particular and tend not to write reviews because no one needs to know what odd issues I find. With Eric’s place, there were none. It was PERFECT. The pictures are wonderful, but they actually don’t do the apartment justice, which is unheard of. The place was so much better than I could have ever hoped for. It was immaculate, very organized, easy to use, and in the most desirable area in all of Paris. On top of that Éric is an outstanding host. He was available at any time for any questions. He provided so much additional information that it made our trip that much easier. We also felt like we were staying at a good friends place. He is so warm and friendly and we had a lovely conversation about all kinds of things, even our family history. I feel like we have made a friend in Eric. As for details, the bed is large, king and very comfortable for my bad back. There were both synthetic and down pillows for your preference. Plenty of closet space and drawers and a large cabinet in the bathroom. The kitchen is fully equipped, my husband likes coffee while I like tea and both were provided as well as a full bowl of beautiful fruit and other condiments and such. The shower works well, small bathtub, hot water and felt great after a long day touristing. The apartment is very quiet, we could not hear any street noise or any noise. It’s private and has a wonderful view of the rooftops and you can even see the tip of Notre dame. There are several windows with tons of lights and nice for letting in a breeze, even when we were there during October when it was cooler. We didn’t mind the 5th floor walk up at all, it helped burn off some of the rich meals and croissants! The neighborhood is walkable and full of life, great cafes all around. We walked everywhere, louvre, Orsay, Eiffel Tower, and farther out, none of which seemed too far because there was always a great cafe to stop for espresso and a rest. I cannot recommend this place enough, if you have found Eric’s place, you have found perfection.
