Corrine is a fabulous host - so welcoming and hospitable. Her apartment is set up very homely with all needs met. Great area! Safe and relatively clean neighborhood, with easy metro access. This amazing, personal home is not spartan (just to be aware for curious kids), is filled with lots of lovely house plants, and also is 6 flights up (again to be aware for luggage and kids access). No air con but lots of opening windows and fans to keep air moving in the Parisian summer heat so no issue at all.
We wish we could stay longer!
