I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Sophia's charming apartment. At the last minute, Sophia had a family situation and was not able to meet me at the apartment when I arrived in Paris. But she arranged for her friend to meet me and show me the apartment. My plane was delayed several hours but Sophia made sure her friend waited for me. I was in regular contact with Sophia so I felt very comfortable with the situation. The apartment had everything I needed. The shower was excellent and the bed very comfortable. It was hot during the time I was in Paris but a fan in the bedroom made it easy to sleep. I was an older woman traveling alone but felt very safe in Sophia's neighborhood. The location was great, about a 15 minute walk to the Louvre and close to many other attractions and restaurants. Sophia is an excellent host. She checked in with me everyday and even made suggestions of nearby places I should visit. One suggestion was the Hotel de la Marine which I had not heard of. It ended out being one of the favorite places I visited with an excellent restaurant. Sophia responded to me quickly before and during my visit. She is kind, attentive, and accommodating. I would highly recommend a stay at her apartment for quality, location, safety, and the excellence of Sophia.
