Quentin was a very friendly host, and his apartment is in one of the best areas of Paris, not many tourists and lots of cool bars and cafés, bakeries, etc, and a local market twice weekly. The city centre is only 15 minutes walk, and the metro around the corner. I would not stay in any other part of town! Quentin has good advice for the metro and for things to do, and was easily contactable whenever necessary. The room is small and Quentin shares the bathroom in your room, but this was never a problem. Sometimes the room smells of smoke...but there is a a big window and some air freshener so not a big deal. Overall, a very enjoyable stay.
