Franck was very easy to communicate with and very prompt with his replies. We informed him that we would be arriving later than planned and he agreed to wait and meet with us. He provided us with great recommendations for using the metro (gave us a map too) as well as the bus lines by his home. The walk to bus lines is about 2-3 minutes, grocery store 5-7 minutes and metro 5-7 minutes so everything is close by. The metro trip to many of the tourist sites will take 30-40 minutes. His home was as described and was clean and spacious. Our trip was very short but if you were staying for a longer period of time and you had multiple people you would be very comfortable in his home. He has options for TV and bluetooth speakers available so if you wanted to take a day off of being a tourist you would be able to relax either inside or outside on his patio. I would definitely recommend Franck's home to anyone.
