Kate's place is a total delight! She has done a charming, beautiful, creative job throughout. She is a gifted stylist in every way. The apt. is beautifully located on the Rue de Seine with all the joys of the left bank just outside the door- wonderful cafes, great shops, grocery stores, cabs, museums within walking distance! One couldn't ask for more. The bedrooms are really comfortable and there is even a fold out couch in the living room. The kitchen sunny and inviting as well as the living room, dining room and spacious bathroom complete with great tub and wonderful shower with lots of plentiful hot water. The one bath is a bit of an issue with more than two people but doable and there could be some additional lighting in bedroom #2- very minor complaints. We were there off season so the balcony was a bit dreary but must be lovely in the spring. We so loved spending time there and Kate and her helper Roman are wonderful and very communicative. And PS. the very nice up to date elevator was a dream!
