I stayed with Silvia and Mael for 4 days. As hosts, they were very prompt answering all my emails and giving me detailed directions , helping me get to the house quickly and without a hitch. The place is in one of the most beautiful parts of Paris which made it a joy to walk around in and I felt very safe, even walking home after midnight. I travelled alone so that was important to me. The flat is also pretty much 5 minutes walk form the Pont Neuf, 10min from the Seine, the Louve and15min from the Musee D'Orsay. The metro a short 10mins walk. Silvia & MAel gave me expert advice on places to see as well as shopping needs, helped me with checking flights when there was a airport strike... both very welcoming and accommodating. The room was big enough for all my stuff and very warm ( it was quite cold when I was there) but also had a beautiful window so you didn't feel boxed in.. I would recommend staying with Silvia and Mael as I felt very safe and at home in their place.
