We stayed at Michael's for 8 nites in April '11. Nice little studio with all the conveniences, & very clean. Comfortable, decent sized Euro-bathroom, with a small washer to boot. Good water pressure, faultless hot water. Plenty of natural light, and good elec lighting thru-out too (we hate dimly lit flats!). Good firm bed. Nice, safe, non-touristy neighbourhood, albeit a little far from the historical center (1/2 hr on subway, but it's part of the Paris experience). No street noise, but ear plugs a good idea 'cause walls thin. Michael a great host (and Phillipe too), easily available by phone (lives across the street). Convenient info booklet on premises a nice detail. Thanx for everything, Michael!!!
