Philippe was waiting for us as arranged and helped with our luggage and gave a full explanation of everthing we needed to know. Of great use was his guide to shops and restaurants in the area and the annotated maps.

He answered our questions and ensured we were comfortable.

The apartment is roomy and has all you need. Philippe had cool drinks ready . We appreciated the champers and beer

The area is interesting and gives you a great feel for middle Parisian life and the mix of cultures.
