Even before we began our travel, I had already been corresponding with Beatrice about details regarding transport, amenities around the area, etc. She was most friendly and helpful in providing all the info we needed, and more! So we already felt welcome right from the start.

On arrival, Beatrice was there to meet us in person and walk us through the apartment over a nice refreshing glass of orange juice! This was most welcome after our long travel there. Most of all, she had also prepared a booklet with all the information about how to work the equipment (sofa-bed, washing machine, etc.) and also nearby things to do, places to eat, transportation.

We found the location to be excellent. Very near to the Metro, and also with many food options, groceries, pharmacies, and also a nearby shopping mall. Of course, there was the Eiffel Tower too. We were able to easily reach all the sights of Paris with our group of 4 adults and 2 babies with not much problem. And it was always nice coming back to a cosy apartment after the day's touring.

Close to the day we were to leave, Paris had a taxi strike! We encountered some difficulty getting our taxi to the airport because of that. But Beatrice was most helpful and gave many options promptly over email -- which worked. We were able to get to the airport on time, comfortably, despite the airport roads being closed due to the strike!

In short, we had a great time visiting Paris with our family. And this was in no small part due to Beatrice's apartment.
