My friend and I had the good fortune to stay at Frederic's this past week. Each one of our stories follows:

Frederic's apartment is very centrally located (very close to Notre Dame, Louvre, Marais and other places of interest...also great restaurants and shops nearby), clean, and easy to access. We took the RER (line B3) from the airport to Chatelet/Les Halles, which is within walking distance to Frederic's apartment. Frederic made arrangements with the building's caregiver for us to get the keys, and we had a lovely stay in Paris. The bed (queen size) was very comfortable, and the "canape" couch in the living room becomes a comfortable twin bed with sheets and a duvet that go with it. The bathroom is quite large (which is unusual for Paris), and the shower was great. Lastly, the kitchen has everything you need. My only word of caution is that the living room and bedroom aren't separate rooms....it's one big room with a half wall separating the bedroom area from the living room area. The space was perfect for us, but the photos make it seems as if there are two separate rooms with a door between them. Frederic, thanks for being a fabulous host.

Frederic was a hands on host ensuring our experience was as seamless as possible. Though our request was last minute he was able to coordinate our stay while he was abroad and ensured our comfort and needs were met. Though we were the first to stay in his apartment in Paris and had no reviews to go on, he was frank and upfront which made him trustworthy and helped ensure that our expectations were met. In addition to its ideal location in the most central part of town, the apartment was blissfully quiet (off a courtyard) and in impeccable order with all the amenities required for a visit to the city. I look forward to my next stay at Frederic's in Paris!
