From start to finish, Dominique ensured that our stay was a happy one. She responded to my initial inquiry right away. She provided clear and detailed instructions for accessing and using the apartment. She shared information about local shops, restaurants and sights as well as helpful info about calling for a taxi on our departure. Her apartment is lovely, as well--beautifully furnished, comfortable, clean, spacious, and very well located for travel by foot or metro. The bedroom facing the courtyard was very quiet. The street-facing bedroom could be noisy with the windows open, but became sound-proofed when windows were shut. This is a very, very slight drawback and was not a problem for us. We would return, with great pleasure, to this beautiful home. Thanks, Dominique, for all of your kind attentions.
