Hoang Ly was an excellent host who was very pleasant and welcoming. He spoke perfect English , which is a great plus for us visiting Paris, where not everyone speaks English. He went out of his way to help us by providing us with very detailed instructions to get inside the private room, because he couldn’t be there at our time of arrival. We met him late in the night when he got back from work. It was very detailed and accurate and we didn't have any problem in getting into the room.
In the room he had a great collection of perfumes and would’ve been very nice for anybody else, but since we both are allergic to perfumes, he removed them and put in a cupboard, when we requested.
He also provided us with tips on the attractions, metro passes, and also arranged for a taxi on our last day. When we requested him to print out a document, he accommodated us by getting it printed through one of his friends. He also let us use his kitchen and his utensils and helped us with using his washer and provided a drying rack to dry our clothes. It also worked very well for us because he left very early every day to work before we even got up so that we can use the bathroom etc. He made us feel welcome and I won’t have any hesitation at all to recommend this place for any one. If we have to visit Paris again, we won’t look for any other place to stay either.
The neighborhood was very pleasant and safe , a residential one with just a few minutes’ walk to the metro, just a few steps away from McDonald and other restaurants as well as a grocery store. Just as advertised. The private room we had is also on the ground floor which was a plus for us to move our baggage’s. Overall the room and the location were very convenient for our purposes and we had a very pleasant experience.
