Viviane was a very pleasant and helpful host, and greeted us right on time. She also left us a nice assortment of cheese, vegetables, croissant, and drinks in the fridge, which was an unexpected bonus after a long flight.

The flat is in a very nice part of the city, and very close to shopping and numerous restaturants, also with several different metro lines within 2-3 blocks (we used all of Duroc, Vaneau, St. Placide, and Sevres-Babylon). We waved bonjour every day to the owner of the bistro immediately downstairs. The flat was a very convenient base for our Paris family tour. It is on the 2nd floor and looks out over a quiet side street with little traffic. The rooms were spacious, and we had plenty of room for our family of 3. It is quite charming with numerous books, which we did not have time to read since we were busy exploring the city.
