Edgar's home is beautiful! The photographs are accurate. It was perfect for two couples; bedrooms on either side of the apartment for privacy, but wonderful living room to gather and make plans for our Paris excursions. The Metro is right around the corner and the canal is a couple of blocks away. We were late in arriving due to horrible traffic, but we had the cell of Edgar's friend who let us in the apartment and he was very gracious about the delay. Highly recommended.
