I was visiting friends in Belgium and decided at the last minute to travel to Paris and found Benoit's listing for a flat in St. Germain. Lucky for me as this was a wonderful place and easy to find. The location is ideal - just steps away from the Metro, restaurants, cafes and in a lovely neighborhood. Coordinating the pickup and drop off of the apartment key was easy. The loft was very comfortable and clean and furnished with a combination of contemporary and antique furniture, and well stocked with all the essentials so I didn't need to bring a huge suitcase for my short stay. The bed was extremely comfortable and I slept well. Ben called to give me instructions for the wifi connection, plus there is a telephone to use at no charge (landlines only). As the loft is a ground floor property, there is some street and Metro noise, but none of it was intrusive or disturbing to me. I would highly recommend Ben's loft for anyone needing a well-priced place in the center of Paris' Left Bank area within walking distance of the d'Orsay Museum and other landmarks.
