I very much enjoyed my stay at Pierre's in Paris. Great location, tidy and warm, with French door/windows that opened on to a green, quiet courtyard. To add to the effect, someone in a nearby building practices (very well!) the piano in the afternoons, so there was a distant classical soundtrack when the windows were opened.

Though Pierre was unable to meet me himself, he had a good friend meet me. She very warmly welcomed me, shared a glass of wine, talked a little politics, invited me to coffee/drinks later in my stay, so all was well.

I look forward to traveling again to Paris in the future, and hope that Pierre's apartment will be available when I return!
