Gérard was the perfect host and very understanding about the delayed arrival of our flight. The apartment is extremely clean and has everything needed for a lovely visit to Paris. The street is very lively with numerous restaurants and shops but there is no street noise since the windows are on an inner court yard. The area around Châtelet-Les Halles where the apartment is located is too good to be true- connections to multiple métros and RER trains. We adore the area. Thank you, Gérard!
