Orel's place is sweet and big (in Parisian standards) and quite away from the hustle bustle of main tourist attractions. We visited with my 1 year old son and had a good stay. Initially there were some issues with cleanliness which Orel tried to resolve as soon as we told him about it as he was travelling. It is not completely child proof for a crawling toddler, but we made a few alterations ourselves, kept his plants and books away and it worked very well for us. Orel was responsive and helpful throughout.
