Luc's place is even better than it looks in picture - a spacious, bright, gorgeously-designed Parisian apartment with a wall of French windows overlooking the rooftops of the 4th;a comfy bed in a back bedroom that is not only shielded from the city sounds by its placement and double-glazed windows, but also sports a blackout shade so that you can sleep in; a fully-equipped kitchen; w washer-dryer; and a great boulangerie across the street. The location is perfect - just far enough from the crowds but a mere 7 minute walk into the Bastille or heart of the Marais; 10 to the Sully-Morland metro and 20 or so to Notre Dame. It also has a glass elevator which makes the normally claustrophobic Closet-sized apartment elevators totally bearable. And Luc is a fantastic host - great instructions for everything. Also great shower and great hair dryer.
