Olivier warmly welcomed us into his home and patiently explained how where everything is and how everything worked. He had prepared a folder containing listings of the restaurants he personally visited and could vouch for. Everything was as listed and staying there was memorable. It was a custom designed kitchen with the refrigerator and the dishwasher both well hidden. The 2nd floor apartment provided quiet over the neighborhood hubbub. Both the Louvre and Le Sainte-Chapelle are within walking distance and so is the beautiful Seine river. Bastille is about a mile away, still at a walking distance.
