Ben was a great host. We took the wrong exit at the metro so it took a long time before we finally found the apartment. Ben called us several times to help us found our way. The apartment is lovely, small but with everything you need. The stairs could be a problem for elderly people (approx 100 steps)m but you get used to it after a few days. The apartment, around the corner from the Notre Dame is very close to a metro station with a direct line to Gard du Nord and Charles the Gaulle.
