Nicolas warmly greeted us at his apartment, earlier than the check-in time. He allowed us to drop our luggage off first as the apartment was not quite ready for us. I'll never forget Nicolas helping us bring our heavy luggage up the 5 floors to the apartment. I felt so bad that he offered to help us out. By the end of our trip, my husband and I got really fit from climbing those stairs everyday. The studio/apartment is cosy, modern, bright, quiet and clean. It has everything we needed during our 10 day stay e.g. washing machine/dryer/hairdryer etc. There is a convenient store within 100m of his home. There are two metro stations nearby and you can walk there within a few minutes. Location wise, pretty hard to beat, it's very central and we found a few good restaurants in the 2nd district which we could walk to easily. All in all, great place to stay if you visit Paris, highly recommend.
