Cyril's house was exactly how I expected it from the pictures and great reviews from other travelers. It was clean, well furnished and like a little oasis from the busy street that it's situated on. I was worried that the duplex may be overcome with street noise when I first arrived and wondered if we had made the right decision to stay there but you could not hear the street at all so that was great. Cyril was a great host and was hardly there so it made for an enjoyable trip for us to relax after exploring what Paris had to offer. I would recommend Cyril as a host and his place as a lovely getaway for anyone wanting to spend time in Paris.
