The host was very welcoming at the beginning but returned furious after we could not get the hot water to work. This left us feeling very uncomfortable throughout our stay and led to a few bad nights of sleep not helped by the tiny bed (really too small for two). However the place itself is very nice, definitely eclectically but tastefully decorated, a lot of French charm. The bath was wonderful once we got the hot water on (but the water pressure was too low to shower with!). The location is very good for tourist sites and public transport with very good shopping and restaurants nearby.
