Pierre was a genial, great host. He provided complete instructions from CDG to apartment. My husband and I were very comfortable for two weeks in his immaculate, tastefully appointed home, well-represented by the photos. We loved the feeling of coming home to comfort as soon as we stepped through the gate into the courtyard from the street.

The bed was perfect; lighting good; bathroom good size; kitchen well stocked with pans, glasses, utensils, plates. The washer takes two hours to cycle, ditto drier, but they are easy to use. Pierre checked in with us the day after we landed, and was helpful recommending local sights.

The unit is incredibly quiet. Pierre's rule of stocking feet only, besides being sanitary, inhibits noise on beautiful parquet floors. We are very neat, so the final clean-up was minimal: running vacuum, cleaning bathroom, and stripping bed.

The Latin Quarter Haussmann-designed apartment is well out of the touristy areas, but easily accessible to major attractions with a half hour walk, ten minute metro ride, or Uber or taxi. We really felt at home in the neighborhood with its nice bistros, local Frenchified Starbuck's with wifi, daily access to Mouffetard shopping. We used google maps on my iPhone with GPS (downloaded a Paris map, so no data) to navigate the city.

Weather when we visited was in the 50-68 degree F range. It would be too hot for me in the summer without air conditioning, but I'd come back any other time of year.

Thank you, Pierre!
