A real Paris apartment in a real Paris neighborhood. Ethel's place was awesome. It was on the top floor of a typical French building in a non-touristy but very lively neighborhood with lots of great restaurants where English is seldom heard. Rome metro station was a 3 minute walk and Place de Clichy metro was about 8 minutes walk which allowed easy movement throughout Paris. I didn't get to meet Ethel but she was a consummate hostess and checked-in on us remotely to make sure we had everything we needed. The apartment was stylish with nice views and fully equipped, including a washer, cable TV, and a great wi-fi. The kitchen was stocked with everything and we even had a nice Fondant Au Chocolate waiting for us. Enthusiastically recommend if you want to live like a local.
