Our stay in Paris was wonderful and knowing we had a great place to come home to at night after a long day of walking and exploring made things even better. Rene' has a beautiful place with every amenity needed to make your stay as close to home as possible. We got great use out of the washer since we visited Paris first of our two week trip. He has a drying rack to hang your clothes on and hangars and our clothes dried over night while we slept. The location is great as it's only a 2 minute walk to the train station and there are several local pubs/restaurants, clothing stores and even a market right below the flat. We definitely did not go without and we highly recommend this place to any traveler coming to Paris.
