Boris' apartment is a treasure. Located in the historic Marais district, it is just steps from virtually anywhere in the heart of Paris. I rarely used the Metro. And Boris is a charming and wonderfully kind host. He took the time to greet us upon our arrival and went to considerable lengths to make sure our stay was pleasant. The apartment itself had a lovely modern kitchen, wonderful morning and afternoon light, and very comfortable beds. The fact that the apartment is in one of Paris's oldest districts added to its old-world charm. Anyway, I couldn't imagine a nicer host, place or visit. I heartily recommend it and I certainly plan to return.
