Andre was a great host and very responsive which was greatly appreciated. The location of the apartment was very convenient and plenty of small bistro and bars within walking distance.

Like with all building in Paris, they have a little bit of history (which I appreciate). However, they can be a little old and in our case, the drainage was a bit of a problem (for both the sink and shower). Also, when I arrived for my 5 day stay in Paris, the lift broke down and I had to walk up 17 flights of stairs (Andre's unit was on the top floor), which was tough for both my Father and I, who had a bad back. Especially with luggage. Andre did his best to contact servicing and offered to have his neighbours help with our luggage, which was a very kind gesture. However, the lift wasn't fixed in time before we left and the journey down with luggage was very taxing.

Overall, I would say as a host Andre was great and the location of the flat, as well as the layout was very good. Plenty of room and the main living area was brightly lit! I enjoyed my stay and with some minor touch ups, I think the flat would even be better!
