Loved this place. It is as advertised and Philippe is a great host whom I’ve been staying with for years.
One point of clarification…there is mention of a lift/elevator in these reviews outside the library. That’s for getting up the hill and puts you out across the street from the flat. There is no lift in the building itself and you have to walk 3 1/2 flights up a circular staircase. It wasn’t a problem for me, even with heavy luggage, but it may be for some.
I will try to stay here on my next trip as the temporary pain of moving the luggage is worth it.
