The place was immaculate (I do not that word often). The place is quiet (the type of quietness you need to write a dissertation or a client report) yet one or two or three blocks from the bakeries, restaurants and shops. And the contacts with Nathalie via messages and in person had a relaxed, California-vibe to it. Finally, Nathalie was kind enough to wait for me at check-in due to several plane/whether delays. I have been to Paris many times (8+) and this was a pleasant, memorable experience.
