Stephanie came to our rescue! I'll spare the minute details, but the bottom line is we were forced to come to Paris a day earlier than planned due to some baggage theft on our holiday - but we didn't have a place to stay. Stephanie responded to our last minute inquiry - and although she normally has a policy of multi-night stays, she understood our circumstance and welcomed us into her apartment. More than that, because she was leaving town, she made arrangements for a friend to meet us and let us into the apartment - all the while with excellent communication by email and phone.

There's really much more to the story than what's stated here - but the the main point here is that Stephanie is a gem who came to our rescue and we're very grateful for this.

In addition to the good fortune that is Stephanie - her flat is wonderful. Certainly small, but it couldn't be more charming. It's been recently renovated by she and her boyfriend and they've done a wonderful job. It's literally about 3 blocks from the Arc de Triomphe, and close to restaurants, groceries, open air markets and the metro. Perfect location! Be aware that it's up a few flights of stairs and there's no lift - but this was no problem at all for our family of four.

Thank you Stephanie! You've got a kind heart and empathy the really helped salvage our visit to Paris.

Highly recommended!
