Claire was a perfect host and always accessible - embarrassingly so. No probs getting in and pre arrival communication was great. This is a great location in Paris. Yes next to a main road but you will only hear police sirens which I hear back at home. And it''s Central Paris without being crazy expensive. Loved having use of a proper kitchen so we didn't have to worry about breakfasts out and big bedrooms. Perfect for a family. We were 6 including grandparents and no problems. Would definitely stay again.
