Yves' flat worked perfectly for me, my husband and our 13-year old for 5 days. The views are wonderful, it's light, the kitchen is well stocked for light cooking, it was plenty warm (we were there in cold early spring), everything was clean and uncluttered. The beds are futons and thus firm, but we found them comfortable. The neighborhood is busy and sometimes a little noisy, but it was great to have all the amenities right there: to be able to go down and get delicious bread and pastries from right across the street or a few blocks away, there's a pharmacy right on the corner as well as a small grocery store and a larger, very nice, organic shop around the corner. Luxembourg gardens is wonderful to walk through, there are multiple good bus lines passing through the neighborhood and the RER B from CDG airport is right there too. We also enjoyed the Lebanese/Syrian restaurant called Taboule, just down the street for a casual meal. Yves is good at communicating and keeping in touch. He met us to let us in and show us around the flat. I highly recommend this flat. Thank you Yves!
