Blandine was a lovely host and we felt very welcome in her apartment. Having breakfast prepared for us was wonderful, and she even helped us by waking us up in the morning when we had overslept and would have missed our train! The location is very convenient to Gare de Lyon and is in a great neighborhood. If you are looking for a very private space this is not ideal, as you are very clearly staying in someone's home rather than your own place, but I think that is accurately described in the listing. It was more expensive than other places we stayed in France, but probably good value for Paris.
