Having never been to Paris before I had no idea what to expect but I think I can safely say I have left my heart in the city! I was a bit skeptical at first because there were so little reviews on this apartment, but Laurent was so quick to reply and so helpful in the process I went for it. I am SO glad I did! This place is quaint and airy and right in the heart of it all! We could not have stayed in a better location. The metro is 2 minutes from the front door and we were able to easily walk to Notre Dame within 20 minutes, as well as the Louvre. Laurent was not able to meet us but he arranged for his friend Damien to let us into the apartment. Damien was so very kind and helpful, especially since we were 45 minutes late and had no cell service in which to contact him. He had all the lamps on, there were fresh flowers, and he even had a candle lit, details not left unnoticed. I fell in love in 2 seconds. Not to mention I'm stealing the idea with the book wall. Laurent also had pamphlets and instructions for the apartment left on the desk. I would highly recommend staying here!
