I believe one of the reviewers wrote "if you're considering staying here, don't hesitate. This is your place" I loved the look of the place, and as a single business traveler, I want to be sure I choose a place that is safe and secure, central, quiet, and in a neighborhood where I can easily shop for food, find a good restaurant close by, and access public transportation easily. This place has all of that, and all the amenities you could need. I love that it's so close to Seine, which also means you have a choice of Metro and busses on either side, depending on where you'r going. The place is just plain cool and fun. Louis was an excellent host. He left me a nice bottle of Bordeaux, told me about the neighborhood, and I know he would have been very responsive if I needed anything, which I didn't. The place has everything you could need. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.
