Bertrand's place was fantastic. It had everything we needed to see Paris. It's nice and clean and large enough to feel cozy in while still being affordable. Bertrand was timely and attentive and made two Americans feel like they could explore the best that Paris had to offer.
It's a nice 20-30 minute or so walk to the Seine and all the attractions therein. I wish we would have had more time to explore the local neighborhood because it's definitely far enough away from the touristy spots that it feels like an authentic Parisian hangout.
My one recommendation if you stay at this area is to check out Au Passage for dinner one night. I had two of the best plates in my life there in a great atmosphere. Thanks Bertrand!
