Nicolas' flat is exactly as pictured and described. Nicolas is a gracious host and was very responsive and informative during my stay. He made the point to inform me of the events occurring in Paris during my visit (nice touch). The flat is perfectly situated in what I call as the "center" of Paris. 5 minute walk to Notre Dame as well as as a shot walk to the metro station. Nicolas has a great collection of books and information about Paris in the flat. Great restaurants, shops, wine store, etc. within walking distance. Plan on staying here during my next stay!
