A beautiful flat in a great location. Very Parisien - very convenient for Gare du Nord and the metro. We didn’t meet David - but he sent messages & collecting the key from a local cafe worked well.
Our only unhappiness was that as mother and daughter we preferred not to share the bed. David said he could supply a mattress - for which we paid an additional €60. We got given a folding cushion from a sun- lounger - not what we had anticipated. We ended up sharing the bed as the foam was only 2ft wide and extremely uncomfortable.
Also - as with many Parisien apartments, the floors are very thin. There was no street noise - but the inhabitants upstairs were very early risers and were clearly oblivious to those hoping to sleep beyond 645.
