We loved our stay at Helene’s gorgeous flat! It’s really well located on the first floor of a secure apartment building (with some lovely period features) in very nice neighbourhood . The street is quite busy but we weren’t adversely affected by the sort of noise you’d expect in a bustling city. The flat is spacious, very stylishly decorated and comfortably appointed, and an ideal base for visiting all the wonderful sightseeing opportunities in Paris.
Helene is a perfect host too: friendly, helpful, kind, responsive and accommodating. Yes, there are personal effects in the flat but it is also her family’s home, and everything is tucked away in cupboards while leaving enough space available in all the rooms for guests’ clothing and belongings. We all felt more immersed in French culture staying in a Parisian home rather than a hotel, and given the quality of the accommodation we thought that it represented good value for money for our family of four adults. Should we return to Paris we would certainly stay here again.
