We had a wonderful time at Giacomo's apartment. The location is fantastic - one metro line is practically at the front door and another (that goes directly to Gare du Nord) is only a five minute walk away, and the neighborhood is absolutely delightful. The apartment itself is well situated and very comfortable; we were a little hesitant about the pull-out beds, but they turned out to be very nice. The kitchen had everything that we needed and there were plenty of linens and towels. They were flexible when we arrived in Paris early, and even though the apartment was still being cleaned we were able to collect our keys and drop off our luggage, which was a huge help. I would absolutely stay here again.
