Elise is responsive and made sure that we arrived smoothly at the apartment. The apartment is in a great location with good access to the metro at Chateau Rouge and a short walk down the hill from Sacre Coeur. The apartment is sizable and comfortable, with colorful, characterful and slightly eccentric furnishings. The kitchen sink is a repurposed bathroom sink that can be difficult to use. The building is old and temperamental, and there were actually problems with the plumbing during our stay that left us without any running water for almost 24 hours. I can't blame the host for this unfortunate coincidence, however, and Elise went out of her way to let us know about the situation and prepare for the plumber's arrival. Not having water for part of the stay and having a plumber in the house for multiple hours obviously wasn't a huge selling point, but the apartment is good value and well located in the 18th.
