Patrick and his assistant Benoit were some of the most kind and capable hosts we've had in our travels. The apartment is beautiful and filled with light. The kitchen (though small) is well appointed, perfect for preparing light meals or enjoying dessert and wine. Everything you need for an exceptional Parisian stay is there. Benoit had many helpful tips and recommendations for places to visit and eat at and we are glad we did! Both also came to our rescue when my husband and I inadvertently locked ourselves out on a Friday at 9:00pm! The neighborhood is excellent with many cool shops, bistros and art galleries. We can't wait to return and stay with Patrick again.
