Emmanuel gave a wonderful welcome. He gave us recommendations on how to arrive and stored our bags due to our early arrival. After lunch two blocks away at an amazing boulangerie, we returned and were given a tour of the apartment. His guest book was full of helpful advice. He provided personalized maps of the area with museums, attractions, and restaurants. He gave us a metro map and explained how to get to different sites. He explained how everything in the apartment worked. He was kind and generous with his time as he described the amazing neighborhood. The apartment had more than what we could ask for. The kitchen was wonderful. The bathroom was updated and clean. The living room had an amazing view. When we return to Paris this will be our first choice for a place to stay.
