I had a wonderful stay. Joseph and Clara were very prompt advising their place was available and giving me instructions on how to travel there on public transport from Charles de Gaulle airport. Joseph welcomed me with a chat and a cup of tea. I had a lovely room and the apartment is everything I thought a Parisian apartment would be - windows opening on to common courtyards, well appointed and comfortable. The area surrounding the apartment was vibrant and safe. Joseph gave me lots of tips while I explored Paris and was kind enough to accompany me to the Gare de Lyon to catch the train south. Thank you.
