Bernard made us feel very welcome. He arranged a car to pick us up at the airport, prepared a map of the local District, suggested many restaurants. He helped us with our bags, showed us all the ins and outs of the kitchen, laundry, TV, etc. The morning sun was delightful in this apartment and the afternoon light on the buildings across the street was majestic. One block from the Seine we walked everywhere and immersed ourselves in everything Parisian in this wonderful neighborhood. Definitely a first choice for a return visit.
