Philippe has arranged his cozy apartment so that all the comforts of home are waiting for you. Large bath towels, nice bedding and a very comfortable bed with duel controls that let you raise each side for reading in bed. The kitchen is well stocked and he makes all the essentials for cooking ... olive oil, salt, pepper, coffee ... available. Even though the apartment is near the busy train stations, it is very quiet, on a quiet street accessed through a courtyard. There are plenty of great grocery stores and restaurants very close by, and he provides a good list of quality provisioners. We stayed for two weeks and it felt like home.
