We loved staying in Valerio's flat. It is located in the vibrant Marais district, with lots of restaurants and shopping at your doorstep. The flat was spacious and with 3 people staying there, we felt we had plenty of space. Valerio's flat is authentic and feels "lived in", as opposed to being in a stark hotel. We loved the large windows, which opened to allow in some of the sounds and smells of the bustling street below. I can't say enough about the location. It is in the heart of the city, and feels very safe (we were 3 female travelers and had no issues). Would definitely recommend!
