We feel extremely lucky to find Michel's place. We stayed 19 nights at Michel's apartment and could not asked for a better place than this. What we love most was the location - it is perfect! The apartment is literally next to everything! It's 10 mins walk to the Lourve, 5 mins to Des Halles shopping mall, 10 mins to Samaritaine / Rue Rivoli, a couple of mins walk to Reaumur-Sebastopol metro station with direct lines to all the central attractions that you could wish for within 10-15 mins. The apartment is surrounded by a very lively neighborhood with plenty of restaurants and bars nearby, yet it is not noisy at night so we could still rest and enjoy a good sleep. The building has a lift so it was really a life saver given we had a lot of heavy luggages (disclaimer: there is still a couple of small stairs after the lift but no big deal). The apartment is practical and have everything we need for a comfortable stay for the 2 of us. The kitchen is spacious and have all the necessary appliances and equipments if one wishes to cook. The sofa is a huge sofa bed which is more than enough to fit 2 people. Michel and Chris were very friendly and helpful, always willing to answer our questions and checking in on us during our stay at their apartment. We had a great time and we would love to come back to this place again for our future stays in Paris. Highly recommended!!!
