I can't recommend staying with Kathleen enough! Her apartment is close to several metro stations and makes a great authentic and convenirnt Parisian stay. The bed is so comfortable and in general the apartment is welcoming and a happy place to come home to after long days of sightseeing. Kathleen and her cats are so friendly and hospitable - my stay wouldn't have been this great or memorable had I not stayed here!! I definitely hope to make it to Paris again, and when I do I'll definitely be staying with Kathleen! :)
