Jad's a very kind host who took the time to find my tablet case after I mistakenly left it under the couch. On arrival, his friend Armand greeted us, helped carry bags up, and make excellent suggestions for nearby attractions such as Stohrer on Rue Montorgueil (delicious pastries). The location is very central, especially if you're into the Rue Montorgueil scene (no cars, plenty of cute cafes and restaurants). The apartment was very clean, and the balcony was a particularly nice setting for end of evening nightcaps. For people who find the typical French staircase a challenge, the elevator was a pleasant relief.
