Dominique is a true Parisienne. She is an independent, creative and charming person who shares two rooms in her duplex on the fifth and sixth floor of a typical 1882 built house. From the street side balcony there is a stunning view of Sacré Coeur and the Rue de Clignancourt is a lively street with lots of shops, cafés and restaurants. The 85 bus stops right in front of the building and takes you straight to Châtelet, Pont St. Michel and Jardin de Luxembourg. But all this information and much more is well described in Dominique's Welcome Document with lots of useful tips and suggestions.
Rules concerning private rooms, use of dishes and food etc. are strict which is not surprising given the fact that you share the flat with her and maybe some more people. There is a spacious, well designed bathroom exclusively for the guests. One thing to keep in mind, should you play Basketball and happen to be a center, you should definitely choose the downstairs room which sleeps two in a king size bed. I am only 6.4 but found upstairs single bed just okay size wise. Also keep in mind that it can get quite hot in the city summer. There was a difference of at least 5-7 degrees (Celsius...) between the two stories.
I very much appreciated having Dominique as my host and look forward to sharing another bottle with her on that balcony.
