Staying at Emilien's apartment was like staying in a NY loft apartment only in the heart of Paris overlooking a beautiful Canal ... not much wrong with that !!!! The view and feeling you get with all the windows open, seeing Parisians enjoy the cafe's and "Canal" life is amazing, and you are on the 2nd floor so privacy is great.
communication with host was perfect. Very self contained so didn't need a thing. the shower is awesome... My Vote: stay there ! Many Thanks Emilien and Charline.
