Alice is a great host. Her place is exactly as she has described and very close to metro - Nation & Picpus. Her place has everything you need for the stay and she makes sure to make you as comfortable as possible in her apartment. Whenever you are home, she will offer a cup of coffee or tea. Although she doesn't speak english or we did not speak french, communication was never a problem. Right outside her apartment, there is a flea/food market that you have access & just take a stroll. Her place well done, neat and clean.
