What an amazing place in every way! Viviana and Dado were the perfect hosts, answering all of our questions leading up to our trip, meeting us early in the day to let us in to the apartment so that we could freshen up after our flight, explaining everything and just making us feel so welcome and at home. The apartment exceeded all our expectations, so light and airy and beautiful (not to mention comfy beds and excellent water pressure in the shower, two things that are important to us!). The neighborhood was so vibrant and alive and we felt completely secure there at all times, and it was wonderful to feel that we were in the true heart of the city, not surrounded by tourists. There are many wonderful restaurants and bars and patisseries literally within a few blocks, as well as a great grocery store. Also only a few blocks from the metro which we made great use of. We truly felt that we lived in Paris for a week, rather than just visiting. We cannot say enough good things and we will treasure our experience always!
