We stayed over Christmas 2018 and loved this apartment. You could not be more central to the sights of Paris and bus and metro stations are a few minutes walk. It is a quiet sanctuary to return to after a day of sightseeing. We appreciated being able to cook our own breakfasts and use the washing machine to launder our clothes after traveling for two weeks. There were lots of thoughtful touches including a bottle of wine, biscuits and shower gel. Alain is a kind and welcoming host and he went out of his way to assist with our stay Including suggestions for local food and restaurants. Would love to go back.
