Nicolas was an incredibly accommodating host who would go out of his way to make sure guests enjoy their time in Paris. He checked in with us to make sure our trip was going well, stocked the kitchen with a bottle of champagne and a pack of Starbucks Nespresso. He printed travel documents for us when we needed them and did not have ready access to a printer. His place served the purpose we needed - an affordable home base in Paris in a central location while we explored the city. The location was great, the neighborhood is bustling with shops and cafes and people and we walked to many places and it is accessible to many metro lines.
