Stan’s place was centrally-located, clean, well-appointed, spacious, with generous and thoughtful touches like nice soaps, still and sparkling bottled water, coffee and breakfast food. Compared to other places I have stayed in Paris, this apartment is at the top of the range. The area around rue Montorgeuil is lively and full of restaurants and shops, and close to several metro stops. The only issue to note has been mentioned by others, which is that the apartment is on the fourth/fifth floor without an elevator. This is however not unusual for older buildings in Paris and only really mattered when climbing up with my suitcase upon arrival. Stan was communicative and flexible about checkin and checkout times. I will gladly stay here again.
