We spent 3 nights in Paul's appartment - and it's a lovely place: a nice, modern, well kept flat, full of light, elegantly decorated (a lot of beautiful African art objects), in the heart of the busy street, and still the place was very calm. Paul was very helpful in answering every question and solving every problem (not that we had that many). A step from the Bastille, and close to everything. Warmly recommended!
