Walked in and went wow! It was exactly like the photos. Compact and well stocked. Couldn't believe there were actually 2 separate decks and a third large sliding window looking in another direction. I couldn't believe it when Martine took me to the deck outside the bedroom and told me to lean out and look around the corner and Sacre Coeur was right behind. You felt you could touch it. Waking up and looking over the rooftops was a joy.
The only down was that one of the remotes to the tv didn't work. Fortunately there were notes from Alex in the neighbouring flat who had helped someone else. He was very obliging when I knocked on his door. While he couldn't fix the remote he was able to show my husband how to download a free app that allowed him to use his iPhone as a remote. The wonders of smart phones.
If you want an amazing experience, living like a local and having the most wonderful view I would highly recommend Martine's apartment.
