A lovely apartment located on a gated street, off a vibrant, lively thoroughfare, and close to a Metro stop. Sara was friendly, welcoming and helpful and brought us bread, butter and jam, croissants/pain au choc, yoghurt and orange juice on the dot of our pre-arranged time each morning, for us to eat in the kitchen with a view of Sacre Coeur.

The washing machine and coffee maker were easy to use and welcome. The facility to make free calls to UK landlines was an unexpected bonus. We'll return to Sara's apartment on future visits to Paris.
