I had a short (1 night) stay at Graham’s place for my first trip to Paris. The other reviews are all accurate in saying this is really one of the best locations to stay in. I traveled by myself so feeling safe was a big thing but I also wanted to be central to be able to enjoy the most of Paris in such a short period of time. I had no concerns at all with the area surrounding the apartment...it really is in such a beautiful area of Paris. I loved how walkable it is and how convenient it is to get there from major transportation (I took the train to Paris Est and it was a very short metro ride to the Odeon station which brings you right by the apartment). I met Graham and his son, William, who are two extremely nice people and made me feel very comfortable with my stay. The bedroom was clean and very comfortable, I had a great sleep which is sometimes difficult when you’re not at your own place. Overall, it was a fantastic stay and I hope to come back soon!
