I highly recommend staying with Thierry. He is a great host - generous, courteous and interesting. My train was late because of the strike and he very kindly waited up for me.
My room was spacious, quiet and very comfortable. And he includes extra touches that one rarely sees - thick bathrobes, quality towels and a light breakfast. The location is fab, 2 min to Gare de Lyon, and there are lots of good restaurants and cafes nearby.
I definitely hope to stay again next time I’m in Paris! :)
