Richard's place in Paris was wonderful and I give it high recommendations. It has the most amazing view of a medieval church visible from the huge windows that line the front of his flat and one can also see the Louvre as well. We were in Paris during a heatwave, and we found Richard's flat to be very comfortable temperature wise despite the soaring temperatures in the city, not only because there was always a breeze coming through, he provided 2 fans, one for each of us. The beds were comfortable and Richard was kind and very accommodating to our needs and communicated with us as needed. Only wish we had stayed at his place the entire time we were in Paris.
