Staying in Axelle & Francis's home was a privilege. It is an amazing home, recently fully refurbished, preserving the typical French character, yet adding full modern amenities. It is tastefully decorated, with high ceilings, full of light. The balcony overlooking the large central courtyard was an unexpected bonus, and a delightful place to sit with a glass of wine in the evenings. While the road can be noisy, this is not a problem, and the house itself is quiet and peaceful. The house is a few steps from the liveliest part of the 6th arrondissement, and cafés and restaurants abound. I only met Francis, who was very helpful and friendly. The communications were excellent, and arrival and departure went smoothly. All-in-all, this is an exceptional apartment in one of the best locations in Paris. I recommend it without reservation. Did I mention there is a grand piano?
