Our experience at Didier´s house was terrific. The location is excellent, at few steps of Gard du Nord, so you have access to all metro lines, maybe isn´t the prettiest neighborhood, but is safe, with "charm" and the flat is beautiful, full of art, books, and details that make you feel like home.
The room is cozy, big and with a lot of space to store your belongings. You also have a private bathroom, access to the kitchen and common areas and a lot of privacy.
Didier wasn´t there the day we arrived, but he arranged everything for us with the polite Pauline to get the keys and start enjoying Paris.
Didier is a very polite and kind person who was always available for information and give us a lot of tips to enjoy the city.
The only "negative" thing is an electric device located close to the room that makes noise at night, but isn´t a big problem, so if we come back to Paris, we will definitly stay at Didier´s home!
