From start to finish, our entire time with Jasmine and Rafic was absolutely wonderful. Upon arrival Rafic was warm and welcoming and provided a multitude of things that we could see or do in Paris - what to avoid, what to do instead, what we should definitely see. We were able to enjoy their company on more than one occasion throughout our stay with a myriad of interesting conversations. During one of these nights, Rafic even took us to see the Eiffel Tower for the 1 am light show from across the river.
The location was also wonderful, sandwiched at the base of the 7th arrondissement between the Invalides and the Champs des Mars. It was close to two metro stations that were instrumental for getting around the city. The benefit of being in the 7th was how quiet it was, which was surprising for us. However, it was easy to get to a busier part of the city with a lot more night life. The apartment was also about 4 blocks from The market street Rue Cler (which I don't suggest visiting on a Sunday).
The room was tastefully decorated with a mix of Jasmine's bright and beautiful artwork and different artifacts from both Rafic and Jasmine's world travels.
All in all we loved our stay with Jasmine and Rafic and whenever we return we will definitely be staying with them again.
