Definitely book Laurent’s place. As two girls traveling alone in Europe for the first time, a safe area was very important to us, and this location gave us both an urban atmosphere as well as a comfortable and secure environment. Everyone in the area was very kind, and it is a great location to get a real Paris experience outside of the overly-touristy areas. Laurent was incredibly kind, answered all of our questions, and even provided a packet full of recommendations for places to eat and visit, which was such a nice touch. A map of the metro was also included, and the station is an easy walk and the system is very comprehensive for locations such as the Eiffel Tower. The room was a good size for the two of us, and was very clean with all the necessities. Thank you Laurent, we will definitely try to book this place again next time we are in Paris!
