Philippe was an excellent host and made it easy for us to get started on our first trip to Paris. He was always available to communicate with and provided us with easy instructions to access his flat and use the appliances. He provided a number of items in his fridge which was nice. Philippe's flat is located in a nice quiet area with several cafes, restaurants and markets. There are three metro line stops within a 5-10 minute walk with access to all nearby sights. The flat itself is a studio apartment with a terrace and best suited for two individuals (we were a party of four) who plan to spend most of their time outdoors. The flat, appliances and furniture could use some updating.
