Anne-Laure was an exceptionally welcoming and accommodating host. Her apartment was better than represented on the website. It is a lovely place to enjoy Paris, close to the Metro which makes getting around easy. The neighborhood seemed a little edgy the first night we arrived, but once we became familiar in daylight it was very pleasant with a lot of good restaurants, bakeries, wine shops and grocers. The crowd was frequently young. Anne-Laure gave us great ideas on things to do and places to eat. She offered a tour of the Louvre, which we accepted. It made the Louvre accessible without consuming all of our time in Paris. I HIGHLY recommend staying in this apartment with Anne-Laure as your host.
