We had a lovely stay. Laurent met us at the apartment and he had kindly provided breakfast, two specialty local beers, and chocolates as well as information about the neighborhood and a map. The flat is spacious and comfortable and what a great location for visiting Paris. There are two metro stops close by, grocery stores and all needed for self catering very close and a beautiful spot right on the Canal San Martin. The apartment building is modern, convenient, and quiet and the bathroom, kitchen, clothes washer and wireless internet were great to have. We appreciated Laurent sharing his space with us which created a lovely base for our anniversary celebration visit.
