Thierry is a marvelous host. He personally greeted us and explained how everything works. A refreshing change from the experience we had in Venice. He went out of his way to tell us he's available at a moment's notice The apartment was clean and spacious. The balcony was a nice bonus and the living room, bedroom, bath and kitchen were fine. The view of the Effiel Tower from the kitchen window never got old. This area of the 2nd Arr. is nice but the noise from the street of young people partying at all hours may be a factor to some. We as baby boomers know that young people are supposed to party. I did buy a 15 euro Bluetooth speaker to connect with my phone for "white noise" in the wee hours. So, problem solved. Overall, a delightful experience!
