Olivier's apartment is wonderful. It is in a great spot, less than 5 minutes walk to Sentier train station, small supermarket around the corner, 5 minutes to Rue Montorguel pedestrian zone and many, many restaurants and cafés in easy walking distance.

It is off the main road and on the ground floor which means no carrying suitcases up narrow staircases. Very safe as there are two key coded security doors to go through before getting to the apartment front door, which itself has a very good locking system.

The apartment itself is well equipped for light cooking, a good size under bench fridge and freezer, washer/dryer and iron and ironing board. The sofa bed is very comfortable.

It is quite small and you do need to be organised. The bathroom is tiny but functions well. However if you are over 6"2' or 90 kilograms you may need to reconsider as the bathroom would be a real squeeze.

Olivier himself is very easy to deal with leading up to,the stay and very quick to get back to any questions. Even advising which trains to catch to get there. He explained everything about the apartment and then left us to ourselves. He sent a text message the day before departure to confirm checkout details and was prompt to arrive at the agreed time.

I would have no problems recommending Olivier and his apartment. We had a wonderful stay.
