It's was nice having an apartment in Paris. The Friedmann's were great hosts. They left very detailed instructions on how to get around Paris and contacted us before our arrival answering any questions we had about getting from the airport to their home. They also spoke great English which made communication easy. The apartment was very homey with an expresso maker, blender, juicer and other kitchen appliances. It was great for a family of four with teenagers because we all had our own individual spaces. It was wonderful having wifi because were able stay in touch with family and friends at home. Also, it was nice having a washer which meant we didn't have to pack a lot clothes for our trip. Their apartment was centrally located which made getting around easy. The Friedmann's may have been next door but we would have never known it because they respected our privacy but of course, they were there if we needed them. We would recommend their apartment for those who love the amenities of home in a foreign city.
