Marie has a wonderful studio whose photos do not do it justice. The apartment was clean and warmly appointed with many nice touches. Marie is a wonderful host who met us at the apartment and made several recommendations for where to eat and shop and which sights were nearby. She left us coffee, some very good tea, and bread and jam. The bathroom is small but not uncomfortable. The stairs are narrow and somewhat uneven, as others have noted, but we had little trouble getting our bags up and down. Not a problem for the able-bodied. The neighborhood is famous for its charm, with cafes, bars, and stores within steps of the front door. We highly recommend Marie’s place.
