We had a wonderful 5 days at Richard's flat. Location is simply outstanding. Unbelievably it's almost on top of the Louvre, but very quiet. One minute walk from Louvre-Rivoli Metro and ten from the RER, so easy if coming from the Eurostar or CDG. So much to see nearby, all walking distance, and fun to just wander. Cafes, shops, restaurants in abundance, coming with recommendations from Richard. The flat is charming, with plenty of space to spread out. Bed extremely comfortable, kitchen basic, but everything you need. Bathroom same. Three very large windows for fresh air and wooden shutters for sleeping. Richard very hospitable and accommodating, he helped me up the stairs with my luggage. Definitely would stay again when in Paris!
