Christophe was there to greet and communicated well on scheduling and directions. The flat is lovely and in a very accessible location to all major sites. There is a Velib bike station almost right outside the door of the flat and many cafes and shops in this very trendy part of Paris. Gare du Nord is within about a mile walking distance and also there are Metro stops locally. The flat was very clean and welcoming with a great design look that the hosts have put much thought into. The air conditioning was particularly appreciated! Christophe was very flexible on check in time and also very helpful and understanding when travel schedule changed on check out day. Great stay!
