Lola wanted me to be welcome and comfortable after my long journey from Australia. Lola provided beautiful French cheese, butter , milk, tea ,coffee ,fresh fruit and a crunchy baguette for me to enjoy on my arrival. There were a lot of condiments to use in the flat which was very convenient for making meals rather than eating out all the time. The bed was very comfortable , the wifi excellent and I enjoyed the balcony which is an important feature for me. It was an interesting experience being in the actual home of a host with the flat full of their personal belongings , dvd's , many photos, clothes and so on. I wanted the sense of actually living in Paris and that is what staying at Lola's pad provided .
