Estelle was a great host, and greeted us warmly with a fresh baguette and wine when we arrived. The apartment was conveniently located close to the Gare du Nord train station, and there are several Metro stops nearby for easy access to any part of the city. The classic Parisian courtyard building was charming, and we felt safe and secure in the area.

The flat is cozy and a good size for 2 people. The bathroom is very small and cramped however, and there is a sizeable step up to get into the shower, which made it awkward for us to use, and could be problematic if you have mobility issues. Otherwise, everything was just as described and shown in the pictures. The area near the apartment has numerous shops and restaurants, and a variety of grocery stores, which made it very easy to buy our own food and prepare it in the kitchen. Estelle provided everything we needed, and gave us good recommendations about things to do and see.
