Rita was just as charming, friendly and helpful as all the other reviews said! My girls chose to stay with Rita because of them and the pucture of the room and we were not disappointed. Rita is so friendly and helpful. The apartment is very charming and so nice to be private and yet Rita is there 2 floors down if you need anything such as metro tickets, taxi, or location to view the world cup! The apartment is beautifully decorated, clean with attraction info and maps. Best of all Carrefour is less than a block away for all your grocery needs, bakery 2 blocks and Las Marais just a few more as well as the metro to take you anywhere. Thank you Rita!
