My stay at Nicolas's place was very comfortable. The place was sparkling clean, is well equipped with kitchen amenities. The area is calm and green. The windows in the apartment are big and there is ample sunlight + the apartment is also well lit. The metro is about a 5-7 min walk from his house and there are a number of food joints / super markets around. There is an elevator in the building which is good for people with luggage.
Nicolas was prompt in his replies (from the beginning when I had enquired about availability) and was very helpful. Since I had a late flight, he was kind enough to allow me to stay in his apartment a bit later than the actual check out time for which I am grateful.
I would definitely recommend his apartment and keep his apartment in mind during my next trip.
Merci Nicolas.
