We were met at the apartment by Marie-Odile. There was some confusion about wether we should go up to the apartment or wait at the street entrance: go up to the apartment.
The transport links are good with several bus and metro stops nearby. It is also possible to rent the Velib bikes as there is a stand round the corner.
The apartment is spacious and distinctively furnished and decorated with a massage chair and interesting, original works of art. It was clean and there were towels and sheets for both of us. It was a little dark but the weather was grey while we were there. We could also hear some noise from adjoining apartments at night.
Marie-Odile is a very attentive host. She told us about restaurants nearby and also helped us to wrap a painting we had bought.
