I found Greg to be very polite and helpful. My Eurostar train was over an hour late, which did not worry Greg at all. He was happily there by the time I reached the apartment. Greg's home is typically Parisian and offers a spacious bedroom with an area to hang clothes and a single bed. I asked for more than one pillow, which Greg happily & immediately provided. The building and apartment are very secure and there is a beautiful old world and fully functioning elevator. It's big enough for one person with a suitcase or two people without. The apartment is literally a short walk from the Seine & Notre Dame Cathedral plus a major shopping street where you will find the cheapest chemist selling top dollar French skin care products for two thirds the usual price. There are two very close Metro stations, which provide all the public transport needed. Beyond that there are plenty of buses to hop on if needed. I am Vegan & was amazed to find a wonderful vegetarian & vegan restaurant minutes from Greg's home. They are hard to come by in Paris so I was really pleased. Apparently there was a second veggie cafe nearby but I didn't get to that one.
A lovely aspect of the room is the balcony, which is big enough to sit comfortably on and eat breakfast in the sun. The shower is small but it works and Greg provided me with a large clean towel.
This is not for couples or those wanting a hotel experience. No breakfast is provided. As a vegan that was fine for me plus there are standard & healthy/wholefood grocery stores both just 3 minutes away. I was given my own little space in the fridge and use of the kitchen at any time, which suited me very well.
Greg was very polite and so quiet that I hardly knew he was there. There was never any waiting for the bathroom or kitchen. All in all a very Parisian experience :)
Thanks Greg!
