This place is a gem in the city. It's in a nice area close to all amenities, we walked to Eiffel tower (45 mins) there'd quite a few grocery stores and restaurants nearby. Host is very hospitable and great to offer tips around the city. We were also able to rent his car for the day to go out of city. Xavier's place is big and very trendy. It has nice balcony and big windows in most rooms. You will not regret if you rent from Xavier and Marie.
