My husband and I stayed at Gary’s place for 5 days and we’re so happy that we did. We were there during the metro strike this September and Gary’s place is so convenient that everything is walkable. The area is safe and the bonus part is that there’s so much Patisserie around I got to have fresh croissants everyday. The grocery store is just across the street. It’s only a block and a half from the major metro line 4,6 and RER B to the airport. Metro line 6 takes you to the major spots. There is 2 flights of stairs to go up the apartment just a heads up. We only have a back pack so that’s no problem. Overall we had a great time and Gary’s place is just the right place for us.
