Francois was a gracious host and even helped me with my very heavy suitcase. The apartment is in a lively and central part of Paris and is next to a very pretty park. It's a good size and Francois includes lots of nice touches including a bottle of wine, coffee maker, hairdryer and local information. If you're ok with a few flights of stairs and are looking for a fun neighborhood with lots of great restaurants I would highly recommend this charming apartment.
