It was a real pleasure and a privilege to stay at Emma's apartment. My family and I received a warm and hospitable welcome and felt a sense of being entrusted to live for several days in what is, after all, a family home.

The apartment itself is wonderful - none of us wanted to leave - full of character, spacious and comfortable and is perfectly located in terms of accessibility to markets, places of interest (Opera Bastille is a 10 minute walk away).

Emma is a great host - she was very diligent but pleasantly straightforward about any arrangements that were necessary (ie collecting keys etc) and a real pleasure to deal with from the very first moment of our reservation until the morning she welcomed us (it was Emma's equally charming mother who collected the keys from us on our departure.)

I could write more but, if you are looking for a great place for a large family-sized group to stay in Paris, well, just contact Emma and go and see for yourself - it's great!
