On a recent visit to Paris, we stayed in the lovely Amèlie apartment. It was designed by Pierre for his mother to stay in when she visits. The apartment is immaculate, organized, and extremely well designed. It is also in a neighborhood where real Parisians reside. I felt completely safe in this beautiful, old apartment building with a large courtyard. It is not in the tourist area but very close to many of the sites. We walked almost everywhere.
Pierre was extremely thoughtful. He checked in with us regularly to see how we were doing. My husband had some luggage that never made it to Paris and was stuck at the airport in Toulouse. Pierre ended up getting the luggage delivered to the apartment after several phone calls even though my husband had tried numerous times and does speak some French. My husband and I both agreed that if this apartment is available that we will always stay at this location when we visit Paris.
