We felt at home!!! Location, description, amenities and communication with host were PERFECT! Renovation on the stairs indeed, but workers were cleaning up everyday and noise was not a major disturbance. We had to adjust our stay due to AirFrance strike and Gregoire was very flexible and accommodating for the change. Better customer service than 5 star hotels. Going up and down the stairs with our luggage was the only hurdle, but we knew it was the last (4th) floor of the building with no elevator. Building is very old and/but full of historic charm.
