Olivier made a special accommodation to greet my wife at his apartment as she arrived early and before me. Olivier was welcoming and asked to track our flights if they were delayed so he could be sure to open up his apartment at a different time if necessary. The apartment was as advertised on Airbnb. We enjoyed being close to the Eiffel Tower and Champ de Mars. There was a patisserie and small grocery just below the apartment and a number of very good bistros and cafes within short walking distance. Metro stops were a few minutes walk away although we weren't able to use them during our stay due to a metro strike and flooding of the Seine. The apartment was clean and had ample room. We would recommend using Olivier's apartment to anyone visiting Paris who would like to stay close to the Eiffel Tower.
