Carole had her friend let us in - our train was late, thankfully her friend waited up for us. The apartment is simple and chic, very much Paris. It is a little darker than the pictures let on but we found that this wasn't a huge problem. It was nice and cozy and held the heat well.

We didn't meet Carole, but the place was as nice, if not nicer than the pictures let us know.

The location can't be beat, it's about 5 minutes walk from the Eiffel tower and you can also walk to some of the other major sites like the Musee D'Orsay, Notre Damme or the Arc de Triomphe.

The shower in the bathroom is a little different to what i'm used to (only a hand held nozzle rather than the usual upright) but it worked out quite well after a bit of trial and error. The tub itself was expansive and very easy to relax in to.
