Marine was a wonderful host, and I wish I had had the chance to meet her. My visit coincided with summer vacation, so, surprisingly, I had her whole flat to myself! It was very clean and inviting, as well as accessible to everything I needed to do. The bakery, le Bleu Sucre, close by is fantastic And a good place to start every day, especially when going to the nearby market. Communication with Martine was swift and thorough. The apartment was very clean and charming, in a safe location within one block of the Ledru Rollin metro. I would absolutely stay there again.
