Superb stay!

The apartment is very big by Paris standards but is decorated in a way that makes it feel cosy too; it is also bright, quiet and tastefully decorated. All the rooms have been renovated recently but the building itself is old enough to have the Parisian "je ne sais quoi".

Though I slept in the master bedroom I must admit to having taken a nap during the day on the sofa (which is really a double bed with big cushions) as it was ridiculously comfortable too.

The area is quite central, with lots going on. I visited the Pere Lachaise cemetery, which is only a few minutes away. You can see the graves of people like Jim Morrison, Oscar Wilde, and Frederic Chopin (amongst others) in quite an amazing setting.

Last of all, Sylvain is a great host who clearly knows Paris well, though he is a frequent traveler himself. Good recommendations on eating out (and on the local wines)! All in all five-star experience - I will definitely go back when life next takes me to Paris! Such a good experience compared with Parisian hotels. Merci Sylvain!
