Veronique's place is just as described. The location is unbeatable. Walk to most Paris locations, listen to live music each night (via the bridge between the two islands), and stroll the Seine. In fact, there's no need or desire to leave the area in the evening. Sit on the bridge for entertainment (or in your own window!), eat ice cream and dine at the local restaurants, or picnic below on the Scene. Additionally, the VIEWS are breathtaking. I honestly don't know how we'll be able to beat this property on return trips- I don't think we will try! The owners were on site and are responsible/ hospitable. We enjoyed our conversations with them and they were not intrusive. They were very welcoming. The steps will be of concern for some. However, the stairs are what offer the views! The layout is quirky but it is spacious. Being on the top floor, this home does get warm in the summer. However, mobile ac units are offered (I'm from the SE United States so this was not a problem for me). Regardless of these petty shortcomings, this property should not be missed. It is phenomenal.
