Sophie is the ultimate host. She stocks the refrigerator with breakfast goodies (yogurt, fruit, eggs, juice, mike) and also had different cheeses for the evening. She also had a special sweet treat waiting for us when we arrived (delicious chocolate eclairs!)
The place is clean and the decor is eclectic. The balcony doors open up onto the river and you can see Paris going by. Perfect location with the subway right across the bridge and all that the Ille has to offer right outside the door.
The only thing, if you’re going in the summer or during warm weather, there is no air conditioning, so you open up the windows front and back of the apartment and the cool breezes flow through, BUT with that comes all of the river noise at night. 3 bar barges right across the river, very loud at night, so...go join them! Music and wine til 1:00-2:00 am! Close the front windows and it’s quieter, but bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper.
In all, we LOVED Sophie’s place and Sophie. Enjoy your time in Paris!
