Laure’s home was in such a perfect location (3 min. walk to either Abbesses or Pigalle metro stop) and the view of Montmartre was amazing! The 6 flights of stairs are worth it (111 steps and we counted them every day)! We didn’t need a fan because of the lovely cross breeze. This apartment is cozy and lived-in. It is not magazine-perfect: there is an uneven wooden floor in the bedroom and there are cracks in many things but it made me feel like an authentic Parisian for a few days. Laure was very responsive via text and, although we did not meet her in person, Veronique met us with the key and allowed us to leave our bags when we had arrived early and jet lagged from Toronto. Charming —-enjoy the birds and rooftops of Paris!
