Stephane's place was perfect for my wife and me. Its proximity to the Louvre was great as well as the neighborhood with lots of cafes and shops nearby. The Metro was close too. The unit was recently remodeled and is on the first floor, so easy to get to. It is a small place but the layout makes it work. Each time I asked Stephane a question, he got back to me very quickly, about 10-15 min. Just one word of caution, especially if you are coming from the US, ask for a tutorial on the clothes washer (not like those in US) and the heating system. All in all, we had a great time in Stephane's place and would definitely consider it for another trip to Paris.
