Yves was the perfect host. He was there to meet and guide us around the apartment, which is surprisingly spacious, quiet and very comfortable. Centrally located in the 11th arrondissement it's within easy reach of all the major 'must-see' sights.

There's even an entrance to Rue Saint Maur metro station just outside the front door, which is very handy. However, if you prefer just strolling around you can easily walk down to the river and places like Notre-Dame, Ste Chapelle etc.

The immediate area also has many independent shops (baker, butcher etc.), restaurants, cafes and bars.

Yves apartment was a great choice. Our only mistake was to book such a short stay. We hope to come back soon.
