Corinne was marvelous and very communicative. You are staying in her families apartment and it is warm and inviting. Tremendous amount of space for a family of 4 on vacation. So much better than a suite or hotel room. The toilet is in a separate room from the shower/tub/sink which was convenient. Building is high security and very safe; multiple locked gets to get through. Great neighborhood. 5 min walk to Picasso Museum. 1 min walk to subway station. Market 2 min walk away. Plenty of restaurants on the street. Near main hub streets. Off the main streets though so it is quite. Corinne provides map books and well-written notes on where to eat and how to get around. We stayed in London at what was advertised as a similar flat but was really bare walls with bad beds, like a hostel. Corinne's place is a true family flat with great beds, lighting, cute compact kitchen with cookware. Just a delight. Am already planning on coming back and can't say enough how great the place is and how wonderful Corinne was to us.
