If private guest room in a stylish Parisian apartment in cozy Montmartre is your goal, Matthieu’s place is perfect in every way. Neat as a pin, with light-filled rooms and gleaming wood floors, shared kitchen space, toilette and bathroom (with both tub & shower) and very quiet and comfortable bedroom. Matthieu is world traveled, so accustomed to hiccups in plans, and was exceedingly comforting to have as guide as we navigated our way through a couple of stressful moments, like finding an early morning taxi during nationwide strike. Not every person can manage the role of hosting travelers with such aplomb and enthusiasm for the human experience, but Barry and I found Matthieu to be just such a person!
