We were greeted promptly and communication was excellent during our stay. The flat is in a fabulous location - not too touristy, yet well located for metro (République). Recommend the Little Red Door cocktail bar just down the street - very special! Warning - if you are staying during summer months the flat gets very hot as there are no windows - we had to open doors during night which made me a little wary (its a ground floor flat). That was the only negative though, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! (bonus points for provision of hair dryer and shower gel!)
