Dominique's studio was bright and clean like in the photos, very close to the central station in Paris so easy to get around. All essentials were provided. However, as two young females (early 20's) we didn't feel completely safe in this area at night time, so paid the little extra money for cabs at night. Dominique was kind and happy to help, he let us leave our bags with him for a few hours after we checked out as our train didn't leave until later that night.
