AMAZING PLACE right in the center of Paris! Nicolas is a perfect host and very easy to work with. The apartment is gorgeous, spacious, in a perfect location, and wonderful in every way. Top of the line appliances, beautiful furniture, an a great layout. You are steps from the Arc de Triomphe and metro stations that can get you anywhere in Paris. There is very nice building keeper who is there to help if there is a problem (which there wasn't!). Nicolas even went the extra mile to make sure that we knew how to use their espresso machine. There are two washing machines, which is a big help. If you are traveling as a family, this is a great place to stay. If you stay, check out Eric Kayser's bakery around the corner for some of the best bread you have ever tasted. Seriously, it's that good. MARIAGE FRÈRES is also around the corner, serving the finest tea in Paris since 1854. The Publicis Drugstore on the Champs-Elysees is very close, which sells Bordier butter. Still unavailable in the USA, Bordier butter may be the best I've ever had. This place is amazing ... and I've barely scratched the surface!
