I had a wonderful time at Nicolas's apartment in Paris. I stayed for two months. The description was accurate, if anything, the apartment was bigger and nicer than I expected. There is a new, bigger sofa bed in the living room than shown in the photos. Nicolas was always available by text, email or phone for any questions I had, and responded very quickly. He and his wife welcomed me with wine and great kindness. They gave me great suggestions on bakeries, patisseries, restaurants, sightseeing etc. The windows are well insulated, so you don't hear any street noise. The location is very central: a lively neighbourhood with interesting shops and restaurants, a 15-minute walk to the Seine, a Metro station right outside the door with quick access to all the major sights in Paris along lines 1 and 8. I hope I can stay at their apartment again within the next two or three years!
