Elitza is a great hostess. She is very communicative and really cares about making sure you are comfortable. She even reached out to us when the weather was especially cold to make sure we were warm and comfortable in her home. Her home is very organized and clean. All her linens; towels, sheets and duvet covers were white and clean. She graciously provided coffee and tea with her coffee maker if you wanted to have that first thing in the morning. Pots, pans, utensils, etc. are all available for making meals if one wants to. She also has a washing machine which was great. Check in was so easy and straight forward. The apartment is in a great location. It is a one minute walk to the metro station. That was so convenient because we used the metro everyday to go sightseeing. The maps and little information booklets she provided were lifesavers. It helped us navigate the city and make plans for each day. The local restaurants and bakeries around her apartment were great. There is a shopping mall close by as well. As other travelers have also mentioned, it was really nice to return to a quieter neighborhood after being out in the hustle and bustle of Paris all day. Just getting up in the morning and going to the local patisserie for a cappuccino and pastry before heading out was a relaxing way to start the day. We really enjoyed our stay at Elitza's home and hope to return in the future!
