Christiane's apartment was wonderful!

The location is ideal, near Invalides and just a quick walk to the Eiffel Tower. Rue Saint Dominique has lots of cafés and grocery stores, and the nearby Rue Cler has many very good restaurants. Though the street is noisy, as soon as you're through the door into the apartment building's courtyard all the sound falls away. It's an idyll.

The apartment was perfect for two people — the bed was very comfortable, the kitchen was well-stocked, and we enjoyed the rosé and espresso left by Christiane. Philippe, her son, was punctual to let us in.

Christiane was extremely responsive and generous to allow us to check out later than planned given our late flight.

Only critiques: The sofa bed was workable but has seen better days. And the lack of air conditioning would have been problematic if it had been hotter.

Overall, a great little place in a great area!
