This was my first trip to Paris with my teenage son and we had a fantastic time. Hilal and Malika's apartment was the perfect size for the two of us and provided all the comforts of home. The neighborhood is convenient with great coffee shops, restaurants and little shops away from all the tourist traffic in central Paris. Everyone we met was so patient and helpful. We didn't get a chance to meet Hilal or Malika but they were easy to communicate with and all directions were clear and accurate. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to have a more local Parisian experience. We look forward to coming back.
