Mathieu is a wonderful host. Very quick in responding and accommodating for any sudden changes in plans. He is very detail oriented and it was a breeze reaching his home from the airport and navigating the nearby area. Mathieu's place is a great way to get a feel of how the locals live. It's not a hotel or a mansion but a cozy space to come home to after a long day of exploring Paris. The metro is nearby and so many great bakeries and restaurants within walking distance. I highly recommend this place for first time travelers.
