Martine is a very kind and helpful person. She was always available for questions and also gave some ideas what to do in Paris. On the first evening she came with us to show us where the supermarkets are. Everything was fine during our stay. We could use the kitchen and the wireless internet, the bed was very comfortable and the room was cosy. The house is in a very quite street which was really great, especially in a big city like Paris. After the sightseeing it was a kind of calm oasis and really relaxing. First we had some problems to find the street as it is more situated in the are area "Porte de Bagnolet" than "Ménilmontant". But once we found it, everything was alright. The Metro was a short walk away, supermarkets and restaurants as well. My daughter and me really felt comfortable and warmly welcomed at Martine's place so I can really recommend it to everyone go stay at Martine's home.
