Sophie's apartment was clean and comfortable and conveniently located in the twelve, just blocks away from some delicious bakeries (The tarte citron at Vandermeersch is to die for, but beware the bakery is closed Su-M), convenient grocery stores and the metro. The space was great for our family of four because the kitchen, living room and bedroom all have separate doors and are connected by a long hallway with the WC and the bath on either end, so our teenager had the privacy of a bedroom even though he stayed on the pullout couch in the living room. The adults were able to make morning coffee and sneak out to the bakery early without disturbing sleeping kids. Sophie had a high chair and crib for us to use which was so wonderful for our toddler. Sophie greeted us in person and we were able to coordinate with her using WhatsApp during our trip. She was flexible about our check-in time when we arrived earlier than expected, which I really appreciate. She offered lots of advice and tips about the neighborhood to orient us. She is so warm and friendly, I felt instantly at home. I ended up needing to see a doctor during my stay and was fortunate enough to get help from a friend in the neighborhood who we were visiting, but when I texted Sophie to let her know what was going on with my health, she immediately offered to help me with whatever I needed. She really is a kind a helpful host and we would stay with her again in a heartbeat. Let Sophie host your Parisian journey, you will not be disappointed! Merci!
