The Host, Marc, I didn't have a chance to meet him, but it took care of everything very well. I had to arrived at Paris early in the morning, I asked him for the earlycheck-in. and He arranged it for me. That was very nice of him to do so. Because I wouldn't know what to do 4am in Paris. The Place seems very safe. it's right near the university Sorbonne. if you are planning to hang around the quartier, ça marche. and I enjoyed staying in his apartment.
