My husband and I started off our Euro trip in Paris & had great experience at Olivier's apartment! It is in a great location and having the convenience of the bikes (bike cards) was perfect! Rarely did we take a taxi or metro. We were a little hesitant to use the bikes in such a busy city, but it proved to be a lifesaver on the feet and wallet - plus, it was a lot of fun riding through Paris and stopping and going as we pleased; would definitely recommend taking advantage of the bikes! The apartment is not huge, but still a great size when you're really trying to just embrace the city anyway! We enjoyed the view of the Eiffel Tower from the outside balcony each morning and evening and loved the fact that the apartment was many levels up so we didn't have a problem with noise from outside traffic. We didn't meet Olivier personally but that was not a problem as he was very easy to keep in contact with - We did meet Faiza and she was very sweet and helpful :) my only request would be for future renters to wash their dishes thoroughly when finished with them. We had to rewash almost everything we used because of crusted food etc. on them. Be kind to those using the property after you and clean up after yourselves! Otherwise amazing property! Thank Olivier & Faiza for a great stay!
