Catherine as an amazing host, very responsive, available, and communicative. I had flight delays and Catherine was very flexible to accommodate both arrival and departure. Her recommendations were very helpful as well.

The apartment is exactly as pictured, a lovely flat with charming qualities. It is perfect for one or a couple, although we were able to host some friends one evening for dinner. However, the apartment is on the smaller side with a sloping ceiling which may limit headroom.

Practically all the amenities you'd need are available. Some things to be aware of - the refrigerator is compact and the kitchen sink is shallow yet decorative. Also, the bathtub uses a handshower with no option to hang it -- but we had no problems with it.

The location is perfect! A few blocks from the Seine, easy access to the Odeon and Saint Michel metro, and surrounded by wonderful restaurants and brassieres. We recommend spending evenings around Rue de Buci with restaurants, gelato, and outdoor live music.

Overall, our trip was wonderful and Catherine and her apartment were a big part of that! She even called us a G7 taxi for our departure to the airport!
