My first trip to Paris was both daunting and exciting. It was all made much easier thank to Alain and his lovely flat. My arrival and departure times were in the evening and Alain was very accommodating about this. Upon arrival, he let me know all the pertinent information I needed to know about the city and traveling around Paris, as well as tips to stay safe and prevent theft. The room itself is beautiful and has a balcony that looks out to the Eiffel tower in the distance. The apartment is comfortable and spacious. Alain was always trying to do anything to make my stay as comfortable as possible, including getting up at 7 to have breakfast ready for me before I had to go out for the day. The location is directly across the street from the paris metro station and right by a wonderful bakery that sells delicious croissants and pastries. I recommend this flat to any first time Paris visitor, and even a seasoned pro.
