We had a wonderful time at Valerie's artist studio. It was very convenient, warm, quite and in an excelent neighbourhood. We could not have wished for more. Valerie is very kind. The appartment is build so genious that even though it is not big, it has a lot of space on three (!) floors . The atmosphere is very good and the feel is cosey. Many books, music and art. It made us feel very much at home. There is a nespresso machine which also made us happy since ordering the desired coffee in a Paris café can be a little bit complicated. The bathroom is clean and convenient too. The apparment is very light because of the many windows. It is good that there is an elevator because it's situated at the 6th floor. There is absolutely no noise from the streets since it is situated at a courtyard. The metrostation with a direct line to Gare du Nord is at less than 5 minutes walk and the Seine is even closer. We were very happy and wil certainy come back.
