James should really be a superhost!
He met us at the flat on arrival and was very friendly and welcoming, with a bottle of wine and some snacks to help us settle in. Unfortunately because of our late train we were a little later to arrive than planned, however James kindly waited the extra time for us to get there, despite it making him late for his dinner arrangements. James was extremely helpful to us during our stay as well, quick to answer any queries we had and gave us some good recommendations for local places to eat and things to do;
The flat was perfectly situated for us - it's a little out of the centre and away from all of the big attractions so it has more a local feel to it, but is very well connected so is only a short walk to the metro station and a short journey to the main tourist attractions in Paris. The flat itself was clean and tidy and a cosy little space.
I should say that the flat is situated on the top floor of the apartment block without any lift access. We were expecting as it was stated in the listing, but this would be a problem for anyone less mobile.
All-in-all, I had a great stay in Paris and would highly recommend staying at James's place.
