Faina's place is great! Especially for the price. My husband and I stayed here for four nights and we were very happy with our choice. Although the apartment is a bit far from the big tourist spots, it's easy to get around on the bus. We didn't get to meet Faina, but she was very good at communicating and arranging for someone to meet us on our arrival. She provided tons of guide books and maps and even personal suggestions. If you're looking for an expensive, clean and quiet stay in Paris, I would recommend staying at Faina's apartment.
