Roch immediately made us feel extremely welcomed when we arrived to the apartment. He gave us a comprehensive description of Paris attractions and local neighborhood restaurants. He provided books and maps for our use. He was very friendly.

The description was pretty accurate. One thing to note is that there was no stove in the kitchen. There was an electric hotplate. But, don't expect to cook a full meal. The space was very charming. However, when we arrived Paris was experiencing unseasonably cold temperatures. The weather was drab and grey and the temperature was in the mid 50's. Unfortunately, the heating system in the building was disabled. We were very cold during our first few days. Roch tried to accommodate us as much as possible by providing a small ceramic space heater. But, it wasn't efficient enough to properly heat the space.

The neighborhood was nice. This apartment was perfect for a no frills, low maintenance stay in Paris.
