Phillipe was a caring, and gracious host. He clearly loves hosting guests, he provides a very nice breakfast which very few other hosts ever do. It is not necessary, but he loves the interaction with his guests and what better way to do that, than over the brekkie table. He does his very best to give you the right directions for metro/bus, which was very helpful for me, as I was not at all keen on going on the metro. Good suggestions for dining options in the local area. Very comfortable bed and room. A little way out from Central Paris, but nice, quiet neighbourhood. Would highly recommend.
