Maxime was a great host, checking up on us a couple times and making us very at home. The apartment is as pictured, comfortable for two and very bright and super quiet. Every kind of store or restaurant is only a minute or two walk away, the location is perfect for Paris. Good bed to sleep on and the shower, although a bit small, had plenty of hot water. It was a long way up the stairs, but we walk everywhere so no big deal. We would stay at Maxime's home again.
