Gilles and his wife meet us as soon the minute we arrived. He had wine and cheese and bread waiting for us in the appartment. Everything about AMAZING location you have read from other reviewers is true. It was close to absolutely everything. Gilles offered helpful tips on how to get around. The place was very clean and oh so wonderfully quiet. It always felt safe there too with the closed courtyard. Plenty of hot water and clean towels. The little kitchen has nice things stocked in it like tea sugar and butter. Any questions we had were quickly answered. I cannot think of a better place to stay and if we ever come back to Paris we will be staying with Gilles.
