I picked Raphael's place because it was conveniently located close the Gare de Lyon. It was very easy to get to, and Raphael sent me detailed instructions and photos on how to find his key, doors, etc. He also let me leave my lugagge behind after check out since my departure time was later in the day. The space was clean and comfortable, and very stylish. My only complaint is that the neighbours were incredibly loud -- shouting well into the evening. This is obviously something that the host can control, but worth it for future travellers to know if they are looking for a quiet getaway. Other than that, this place was everything I needed and I would return if I needed a conveniently located spot again. Thanks Raphael!
