Francois was very kind and helpful. He met us at our arrival and explained us many useful things about the neighborhood and transportation. He also left us warm welcoming gifts. The next day he took us to buy our transportation card and showed me which bus I needed to take to go to my meeting. We were able to ask him a few doubts through the week and he answered promptly. He has been the best host I had ever met! The apartment is very nice and clean. It is in a second floor and has natural light. There were 3 of us at the apartment. The bed and the sofa are very comfortable. The weather was unusually hot so we slept with the windows opened to get fresh air. One can hear the street noise but we were able to sleep very well. The neighborhood is very pleasant and one feels safe. There is a laundromat in the same street very close, that closes at 10pm. You can go anywhere with public transportation. There is a boulangerie around the corner, several supermarkets, pharmacies, good restaurants, a chocolate store, buses and metro stations nearby. I highly recommend this apartment and I am grateful for Francois’ hospitality.
