It was great to get to know Romy a bit. She is intelligent, sophisticated, fun, and knowledgable, and we formed a quick bond. We went out to dinner together, and she chose a great neighborhood restaurant. The skylight is the window in the room, and it is fun to see the sky change in the mornings and evening. The location is perfect. I walked everywhere; I only too the subway to visit a friend in the 19th arrondissement and to go to get a train to Chartres. Romy is clear about the walk-up and the narrow staircase in her ad. That is a definite consideration. Pack light and be prepared for stairs, and you'll have a perfect stay. Romy jokingly told me that the staircase was a "stair master." I'm 67, and in good enough shape; it really was no problem.
