Luc was a very good host. We were met by his son who explained how the apartment functioned and Luc maintained steady email contact with us. The apartment was exactly as described, calm, large and comfortable. The location is excellent, minutes from numerous restaurants, shopping, gardens and the like. We were there over November 13th and came to appreciate the fact that the apartment is on the edge of a heavily patrolled area of ministries and embassies...it was very quiet that night. We had read that a prior guest found the bed mattress very hard...it is not. We found it very comfortable. The apartment is ideal for a family or up to four people...beyond that might be less comfortable because there is only one bathroom and one toilet. One very nice benefit is that the water from the fridge is "eau de source" and tastes excellent...unlike much Parisian tap water.
