We didn’t meet Axel but he gave us very clear instructions and stayed in touch with us, giving fast answers to any of our questions. The apartment is superbly located in a beautiful and quiet street, right next to the Bastille square where you can find all sorts of restaurants, cafés and bars. We recommend Bofinger where we had a wonderful dinner. The apartment is in walking distance from many of the main sights of Paris and the metro is right by the end of the street, making it a perfect base for exploring Paris. I definitely recommend Axel’s place and hope to return.
