Eric was a wonderful host! He allowed me to make a last minute (read, the night before) booking, and changed his plans to accomodate my husband and me, and two of our friends. His apartment was a wonderful place to return to after long days of sightseeing, and was a simple five minute walk from the metro. Communication was very easy and almost immediate with Eric, which I truly appreciated. He had his girlfriend meet us at the apartment to ensure we were settled, as he was tied up with other business. It's a shame we never got to meet Eric. Hopefully we'll have a chance on our next trip to Paris!
