Solenne was a great host, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Though we didn’t meet in person (she was on vacation), she arranged everything very smoothly. She had all we needed for proper self catering. It was very comfortable and homey.
The apartment itself definitely matches the description, and we quickly felt right at home after a very easy check in. Her place is nice and quiet, set back away from the street. It is a typical central Paris apartment off a shared court yard. It felt bigger than it appears in the photos.
The metro is very close, and line one in particular is just a short walk. From here we easily reached all major destinations within 20-30 minutes. We even regularly walked to the centre.
There are several nice cafes and bookstores in the neighbourhood, as well as easy groceries and excellent bakeries. It’s the perfect location; close enough to the main attractions, but not in the thick of the tourist centre.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend or stay there again!!
