Dominique was the perfect hostess! Very friendly and polite and very quick to respond to any questions and evenassisted us with making dinner reservations over the phone in french. Her house is an awesome alternative if you want to experience the traditional Parissene stay, the place is very confortable for a couple, the room is ample and has all the necessary things for such as a desk, armoire and a surprisingly big bathroom (for european standards) next to the room. We were very lucky to be able to meet and chat with Dominique and her daughter and they were very gracious to let us have full use of their kitchen and a lovely private balcony overlooking the Sacre-Coeur church and the Parisian rooftops Lastly the area is very local and laid-back and felt very safe even late at night. Located right by Montmartre and steps from the Sacred Heart church it is full of nice and cheap bars, local cute restaurants and even an awesome bakery a few doors down with some of the best pastries I've had. We will definitely stay here on our next trip to Paris!
