Arnaud is a great host, very responsive and accomodating. He offered me to arrive one day earlier in the apartment for my first stay as the apartment was free. I stayed a few more days ten days later, and again, Arnaud let me get into the apart the day before the planned check-in (there were public transportation strikes at this time and it was useful to enjoy such flexibility). The apartment is very well located (I have been living in the district for 20 years before moving abroad a few years ago) next to the Luxembourg garden and the Panthéon with plenty of grocery stores around. You won’t hear anything from the street as it is on the courtyard side of the building, although during my first stay, I could hear the neighbor upstairs walking as is the case in most old buildings in Paris.
