We were very happy with our stay at Catherine's appartement. The rooms were clean, the bed very nice. The shower is also great. We were welcomed in a great way! The location might not be the most central, but the metro station is near by and there are a lot of nice places to have a breakfast. And though the appartement is situated next to Gare du l'Est, with the windows closed there is almost no sound from the streats or the station. I would highly reccomend this place. Also good to know: you can park your car under the station and reserve a place before hand.
