Beatrice is an AMAZING hostess. Our cab from the train station ran late, and she patiently waited to meet us on arrival. She also swooped in to save our vacation by agreeing to allow us to rent her apartment when our original AirBnB booking was cancelled at the last minute (I just wish I could leave a review for Adrian, but AirBnB does not allow one to leave reviews for hosts who cancel without a reason).
Beatrice's apartment is filled to the brim with her artwork. It is roomier than many I looked at, and has an elevator, which is a gift in Paris. The kitchen is spartan but useful. The bed is very comfortable, though I am getting to the age where crawling across to the side nearest the window is a bit much for me.
Beatrice shared her list of favorite shops and restaurants. She walked outside with me to point out the not just the nearest bakery and grocery store (there are several), but also which ones she found to be best. Invaluable!
My only concern for anyone booking with Beatrice in the future is this: understand that her apartment is really filled with artwork. There is little space for you to unpack (especially as much as I pack!). As long as you plan for that from the start, you will have only wonderful surprises.
Thank you Beatrice!
