The host made us feel welcome, the apartment was great and our trip was fabulous.
Now for the details. My wife, twelve year old daughter and I spent eleven nights at Christophe's apartment on our first trip to Paris, as a family, in June. The apartment is in a friendly, historic, renovated building typical of Paris. It is well situated, both near a metro station and in walking distance of major sites. The immediate neighbourhood is lively, safe, colourful and offered all of the services we needed, wine shops, cheeses, etc. The apartment had all the amenities in good working order and was well stocked with supplies, even featuring a view of the Eiffel Tower. It is clean, nicely appointed, well laid out and very comfortable for two or three people. Wifi service was fast and reliable. While there is phone with free calling and a flat screen TV with lots of programming, we never had much time to use either.
We were greeted at the door and given a welcome orientation. Christophe was accessible throughout our stay, offering suggestions and making sure we had everything we needed.
We really could not have asked for better accommodations and would not hesitate to come back.
