We had a great time at Emeric's place. The location is fantastic: central enough to walk to many places but not in the noisy, touristy center; there are restaurants and supermarkets close by and metro and bus stations within a few minutes walk. The apartment itself is very nice: spacious and stylish living room, next to the open (and well equipped) kitchen, made it easy to spend time together. My three children really enjoyed the kids room (including the bunk bed) and playing with the toys there. The bed upstairs was very comfortable (we like hard mattresses) although there wasn't much privacy (no door at the end of the stairs). Communication with Emeric was quick and easy. We'll certainly consider staying at the same place next time we go to Paris.
