Emmanuel is a fantastic host. He responds very quickly, is very warm and thoughtful, and has a lovely home to share with guests. You can tell his house is well-lived in and well-loved. The house is near the edge of Paris’s periphery, so it does take a while to travel to sights. But the metro stops are close, so not too much walking. The house has a sweet cat that stays outside if allergies are an issue. Having a washer/dryer is awesome for those staying for a bit of time.
