We had a wonderful three-night stay with Maryline in July, 2012.

The shops and restaurants of Saint-Denis were within easy walking distance, as well as an amazing park for our nine-month-old to play in.

Maryline thoughtfully provided extra linens for the baby in addition to maps, parking information, and easy-to-follow instructions on gaining access to the apartment. She answered her phone immediately the one time we needed advice (the only potentially tricky thing about her place: free parking isn't plentiful in the area; if you ask her for her amazing parking map and make sure to read the street-cleaning signs, though, you'll be just fine).

A few other highlights:
-Strong water pressure in the shower
-Proper bed with loads of soft sheets and a choice of pillows
-Plenty of room to store your belongings
-Gorgeous interior decoration
-Big, quiet patio

Thank you for your hospitality, Maryline. I can't wait to come back.
