julien was an excellent host. he was easy to cmmunicate with and was very helpful in giving us tips on how to get around. he even had water, orange juice, and snacks for us to have which is much appreciated after getting off a flight. there was a door issue before we arrived and he was prompt to get it fix before handing us the keys. for the trouble he left us a delicious pie from one of the bakeries in the area which was very nice of him. the location is near notre dam, pantheon, and the shops on st michel. metro station is very close also. maybe less than a minute out the front door.
we opted to take uber bc my mom has bad knees so cant walk too long and too far. the only trouble we had was our taxi drivers not knowing where the exact address is. the address takes u to a hotel that also shares a similar address however the apartment is off to its left side (if your facing the hotel), sort of behind the hotel block, and down the steps, directly behind the police station, which gives a peace of mind that you will be safe in the area, however it is already safe alone itself..
the flat is as shown in pictures, small but cozy, the bedroom however is actually more spacious then it looks in the pix.....
although there was no ac, the flat does stay cool if you open the windows. we felt very comfortable and i am one who always likes my ac and the room cold.
overall great place for the value. and the host is one of the best ive encountered.
