I won't bother to search anymore for a terrific place to stay in Paris. I stayed in this extremely tastefully renovated apartment for almost three weeks with two friends. We were so comfortable.Two of us slept on the futons and despite misgivings about futons, I am a convert now. They were VERY comfortable. The kitchen is fully outfitted and easy to use. The bathroom is extra nice and wonderful to have the heated towel rack. There is plenty of extra space to store your suitcases and shopping bags. Sebastien lives in the same building which was an extra bonus. We just left a note on his door whenever we couldn't figure something out or needed a good restaurant recommendation. He is extremely accommodating and helpful. The neighborhood is a dream. Very safe and full of great shopping and great bistros. This was such a positive experience. I highly recommend Sebastien's lovely apartment.
