We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Paris at Valerie’s apartment. Before arriving, she provided clear instructions on how to get to the apartment from the airport making it very easy to find. As mentioned in other reviews, the stairs were narrow but this was not a major issue for us. The area and location of the apartment was fantastic, with various surroundings bars and restaurants, including a wonderful little pizzeria called arrivederci (this is a must visit if you love authentic Italian pizza). The windows of the apartment had good sound proofing that once closed, we barely heard any of the outside noise. This apartment is perfect for a couple staying in Paris.
