We had a wonderful time staying with Eric. His apartment is adorable and in a great location near the Moulin Rouge. There are many restaurants and cafes open around him and a taxi stand down the street which made going out at night very easy. Eric was extremely kind to us. His mother was staying there as well while we were there and she cooked us a delicious breakfast pastry. They were very welcoming. I definitely recommend staying with Eric in Paris if you are visiting.
