We stayed at Dan's place between Christmas and New Year's, and we had a lovely time. There were three of us, so the apartment was very generous for our group in terms of size and amenities. The apartment is comfortable, spacious, and stylish. (And quiet! Though we are New Yorkers and San Franciscans, so our definition of quiet might vary from yours...) We visited during the Métro strike, but the apartment's central location made it easy to walk to lots of wonderful things, including the great raft of shops on Fauborg Saint-Denis, where we did most of our food and wine shopping for the week. Our favorite night was probably the one we spent cooking roast chicken in the lovely kitchen. Thank you, Dan, for such a great stay!
