Olivier's place is well located in the Canal St-Martin neighborhood and has a charming view over the canal and an operating lock. The apartment was exactly as advertised and Olivier was responsive to all of our emails and questions. His replies were quick and helpful. Olivier even offered to meet for drinks to talk about Paris and his favorite places. Alas, I couldn't find the meeting place and we didn't connect, but Olivier was very understanding. Please forgive me Olivier, and thank you for helping us have a wonderful experience in Paris.
