If you stay in this cosy apartment you will love it. Carole is such a great host, she is so warm and welcoming and goes out of her way to make sure her guests feel at home. The apartment has a bit of history, I think it used to a part of a convent with lovely ceiling beams, the beds were very comfortable, the bathroom and shower are roomier than most, the kitchen is well equipped including a supply of common condiments, and lots of little personal touches like, drinks in the fridge, we were also given fresh fruits and some delcious galettes! This apartment is so quiet, situated down a lovely pathway well away from the main street, so no problems sleeping. It is located in a vibrant and family friendly part of Paris... a great neighbourhood with a great feel about it, restaurants, cafes, parks full of families, fresh food markets, Monoprix just down the street, a small Marks and Spencer nearby, some of the best crepes we have eaten, two metro stations, one almost at your doorstep, banks and ATMs nearby, the Bastille square a short walk away, also not far from Gare Lyon and Bercy. One of the best things about staying here apart from the privacy is the security, something we have always appreciated. So if you want to feel like you are more than just another tourist, stay here. If you want to experience a little of what Parisian day to day life looks and feels like, stay here... Carole and this apartment are wonderful.
