If you are a family/group of 4 or 5 traveling to Paris and want to live like a local then this is the place for you. David is a welcoming host who was there to greet us and provided us with local information upon arrival. The location is excellent; only 1 minute walk to the Metro and within walking distance to the Seine , Montmatre and all attractions if you prefer to walk Paris rather than take the Metro. A large supermarket (monoprix) is in the next street for all your supplies. The apartment is compact but for us as a family of 5 it was perfect. We arrived on the Saturday when Paris was shut down due to riots however, the situation at this time did not impact on us at all. We felt completely safe at all times wherever we went day or night in the week we were in Paris. Highly recommended and a great place to explore a great city!
