Our stay in Paris was very special! Isabel arranged to meet with us to welcome us at the residence on our arrival day. She had gone to great lengths to create a welcome handbook to help us find our way around this marvelous city. We took many of her suggestions! She helped us to know how all the appliances worked, and stayed in touch with us that week to make sure we were comfortable. The "flat" is located at a central location just around the corner from the Place de la Concorde in a lovely neighborhood where we felt safe each night. We were able to access the Metro and walk to many places such as the Louvre, Tuileries, Seine River, Musee D'Orangerie and Musee D'Orsay. We had a good sleep each night after busy touring days (early morning trash collection began about 6:00 daily.) We liked being in a historical location, and loved the comforts of the apartment. It was very clean, and provided an authentic Parisienne experience!
