While en route to Mia's beautiful, peaceful and historic venue we were in contact already by text messages. Upon arrival she greeted us with a welcoming smile, showed us the workings of the place and also shared some history about the apartment. The apartment was very clean, felt very safe, and was filled with luxurious details such as fine linens on the beds and baccarat crystal in the cabinet. We found books in French and in English...some travel books and some books of interest and a current magazine as well. Fresh flowers on the coffee table and perfume in the bathroom was also nice, as was the bottle of rose Mia had for us in the wine chiller. Mia was a gracious hostess and helped us in any way we needed. What an old world experience it was! Practically speaking, there was a grocery nearby and many restaurants within a block from the place. This fine apartment was in such a great location that we would absolutely stay again! Next time we will try a round of Petanque outside in the park with the game provided! We highly recommend Mia's apartment.
