We really enjoyed our stay at Guillaume's apartment. It's located in a lively, hipster area with lots of shops and restaurants, and very close to the metro. Once inside the apartment, the street noise practically disappears and we were left with a comfortable place to rest from our travels. The apartment is spacious by Parisian standards and well-equipped. The bed was extremely comfortable and very large. The black-out shades in the bedroom were a nice touch for travelers recovering from jet lag. The kitchen was well-equipped and every detail was well thought-out. We used the hob and the washer and both worked well. We couldn't figure out the dishwasher (sorry!) but it's nice to have. The decor was bright, modern and airy, just like in the pictures and it felt very clean inside the apartment. The apartment is located in an older building on the 5th floor - so a lot of steps - but we quickly got used to this. Having the ability to park close by so cheaply really put this place over the top for us. While we didn't meet Guillaume, he was very communicative before, during and after our trip. His friend, Romain, handled check-in and was very kind and assisted us promptly when we accidentally blew a fuse (whoops!) in the apartment. Overall, a very pleasant stay and we had a wonderful time!
