Eric's place was truly wonderful. It looked great in the photos but ended up being even bigger than I expected. It was very comfortable for 3 people—my parents and myself. It felt very updated while still maintaining the charm of an apartment in Paris.
We adored the location, it's conveniently located right next to an entrance to the Chatelet-Les Halles metro station, from which you can go almost anywhere. It was also very close walking distance to many of the main sites. It's located on a walking street so you don't have to worry about the sounds of traffic at night and it is surrounded by wonderful restaurants. At the end of a long and busy day, it was lovely to sit and enjoy a new restaurant each night knowing we were staying just around the corner.
Eric was very communicative and accommodating, checking in with us from time to time to make sure we were comfortable and also arranging for our bags to be kept safe while we enjoyed our last day in the city before a late flight. I'm very much looking forward to staying with Eric again!
