We found Ferdinand's flat to be a perfect base for our visit to Paris. The view is exactly as it seems, quite lovely and worth the six flights. It was quiet, charming and clean. We enjoyed the proximity to the metro and to the charming neighborhood of Montmartre half a block away. Be sure to visit the Grenier à Pain around the corner for the best baguette in Paris (no joke, look it up). Ferdinand was easy to reach and friendly. Our only suggestion is that he make the bed more comfortable with softer sheets and mattress pad.
