The stay at François-Xavier´s apartment made my short visit to Paris, the best ever in this beautiful city.
Impecably clean, in line with the description, ideal for a cheap stay for 4, and to live Paris like a Parisian
The apartment:
I flew into Paris via Orly Airport. The RER train took me to Chatelet-Les Halles station which is located no more than 50 yards from the flat.
The flat is in Rue Montorgueil, a really trendy pedestrian area, full of life, typical French cafes, restaurants, fruit and cheese markets. However it is incredibly calm because the flat faces the building's inner court. Even better!!! It is on the 1st floor so you even have a private terrace with a garden table to have breakfast.
The apartment is typical XVII century Parisian construction, but it seems it has been completely renovated recently, introducing all modern confort whilst respecting the traditional wooden beams and tile floors.
It can confortably accommodate 4 people. Very spacious.
Internet connection is excellent, the kitchen is perfect and fully equipped, it has a bathroom with a perfect shower and a separate toilette, beds are extremely confortable.....
The host:
François-Xavier speaks perfect English and Spanish. He was incredibly helpful. We arranged to meet at the apartment. I arrived a few minutes early and he was already waiting for me. He lives only a couple of blocks away. He knows the area and the city as no-one I've ever met before. Gave me the greatest tips for my short stay. Contacted him during the day for advice and always super fast to answer.
Thank you!!!!
I absolutely recommend the apartment. The best since I started visiting Paris 20 years ago!!!
