Great hosts, warm, reliable and helpful. The boat is a very special place to stay in when visiting Paris. A breakfast basket at our door every morning and a boat cabin with all one might need if visiting for a few days. The deck has a gorgeous sunset view. The location is very good for public transport and easy to navigate. The area is lively in the evenings, music heard from nearby boats that are cafes or bars and from across the river. This might be a disturbance if you want quiet evening hours, but for us it added to the excitement of the area. We were on vacation, so some noise did not bother us. The Seine is a busy river in the summer, we had fun watching all different kind of boats passing by. During the night it was very quiet. All in all, a memorable stay in Paris.
