we really enjoyed our stay in Catherine's apartment. Although we didn't meet Catherine, Nicholas was very helpful. The apartment itself was very comfortable and well equipped. The local area was interesting, with bars, restaurants and shops nearby, Including a good boulanger which was very close. The metro station was just a few minutes away, with the line 13 providing reasonable connections to anywhere in the city. It could be a bit noisy at night when we we had the windows open and three flights of stairs were not always appreciated. However, we would definitely be very happy to stay there again.
