Valerie made our stay in Paris unforgettable. She made arrangements to have her husband show us the apartment. Valerie went out of her way to call on the phone to make sure we had everything we needed for a smooth stay. She thought of everything! From water and juice in the refrigerator to guidebooks about Paris, this flat has everything you'd need for a great stay. The apartment is small and the shower has a small opening, but makes the trip to Paris more Parisian. There are many restaurants and an easy walk to the metro. The metro line will get you to any of the main sights within 20 minutes. I'd recommend staying with Valerie.
