Arno was a great host. He was very personable when we met up and provided me with recommendations in the area. He was also very quick to respond when I had questions about the washing machine. The condo was very comfortable to stay in and just like the photos. Great wifi also!! The view is gorgeous and the bed was almost too comfortable. It is just across the street from a metro station and a grocery store. There was a farmers market on Friday and Tuesday right outside the door. Also there is an electronics store right next door if for some reason you blow out your adapter like I did. The neighborhood might look a little rough around the edges but I never felt unsafe. I would love to stay at this listing again if I am in Paris.
