Laurent was a great host. He met us when we arrived, provided specific information on all details of the apartment and immediate area, and met us again at check-out. He was available by phone and text message throughout our stay. When we left, he reserved a cab for us. His English was excellent. While we tried to speak French when we could during our trip, knowing Laurent was available for anything was great. The apartment was just as pictured - very clean and modern. Great location - safe to walk around at night, able to walk to all main Paris attractions and take the Metro to anything we wanted. It was within a couple of blocks of a large supermarket, plenty of restaurants and street vendors, and stores. It is on the sixth floor, and while there is an elevator, it is very tiny. We used the stairs all the time for extra exercise! We recommend the apartment highly.
