If you want to live like a true Parisian, this is the apartment for you. Olivier's apartment is a gem, it is clean, bright, sunny and spacious and full of character and Parisian charm. The location is excellent, across the street from the Luxemburg Garden, and walking distance to the Notre Dame, the Pantheon, and other sites, but far enough from the noisy tourists for quiet evenings. Great access to a number of metro stations and RER, and restaurants and shopping. Check in and check out was really easy, Olivier's friend let us in and showed us around the apartment and provided a key, same for checking out. Olivier was very responsive via email, providing helpful suggestions for sightseeing and restaurants, and responding to questions. I stayed with my adult daughter, but the apartment can easily accommodate a family of three. I hope I can stay at Olivier's apartment again, and highly recommend it!!!!
