This room was the perfect introduction to Paris. Antonella's apartment is warm, eclectic, and inviting, and getting there from the airport couldn't be easier - the Roissybus drops you at the Opera House just a few blocks away. The room is more spacious than it seems in the picture, and it's wonderfully, blissfully quiet. One of the other benefits I didn't expect was the *huge* bathtub upstairs, which provided scalding hot water (my preference) in no time at all - the perfect thingafter a full day of touring the many nearby museums, cafes, and walking along the Seine.

Antonella and I were largely on different schedules, but my every encounter with her was welcoming and delightful. The room is perfect for anyone who travels light, on a budget, or wants to experience how the locals live. The neighborhood is safe - I never felt at risk, whether at 6:30AM or midnight - and a great introduction to Paris. I highly recommend this place, and would definitely stay there again. Thank you Antonella!
