We did not meetChristiane but her friend Danielle met is at the apartment and provided a friendly welcome and overview of the facilities and the area. It was a joy to stay in such a thoughtfully designed, tastefully appointed and generously equipped apartment. Kapriole is a real home away from home with everything a discerning traveller could require. Unfortunately the weather precluded us from using the terrace but the underfloor hearing kept the apartment cosy. The metro station was an easy walk and late in our stay we discovered the 59 bus from the opera which dropped us at our corner.
