The stay at Shawn's place was perfect. Since we came during the strike with no Metro, staying at a location so close to the Louvre and centrally located to walk everywhere else was fantastic. The location felt safe but in the middle of it all.
Shawn provided all you could need to cook a quick and easy meal, and provided coffee, tea, and a few snacks. There was also a well stocked first aid kit that came in handy when we had a small cut. The bed was so comfy and the extra blankets came in handy.
Just one thing - there are A LOT of stairs. The elevator was out during our stay (not Shawn's fault!) and you need to walk up five flights of a spiral staircase and then one extra set of stairs to get to the apartment. My boyfriend and I didn't mind at all since we like the exercise, but if you're averse to many stairs for any reason I'd double check if the lift is back in operation first :)
Thank you Shawn! We would definitely stay again
