Olivier was a great host, unfortunately we had a change in our arrival time, but he was able to accommodate quite easily. The apartment was exactly as shown in the pictures and easy to find based on his directions. The Metro and pick up of the Velib bikes was right at the door. The area was a typical city setting and lots going on. Olivier's booklet was very thorough and came in handy. The best part, aside from the location of the apartment, was the Velib bikes, we used them everyday. I would recommend this place for anyone that is looking to stay in Paris and don't want to stay too central.
