Assad is a wonderful host. His communication and instructions re. access to the apartment/wifi etc. were excellent. It was all very easy for us. The apartment was exactly as advertised and very comfortable. Piping hot water at all times. The location of the apartment is excellent - close to excellent restaurants, a supermarket, boulangerie/patisserie and lots of lovely independent shops. We avoided the Metro and did lots of walking so that we could see more of Paris. We had a wonderful time. Highly recommended.
