A clean, light, spacious apartment in a lovely neighbourhood of Paris, between two Metro stations. The elevator was especially welcome for getting us up to the 5th floor. This is Valentine's home, so there were many of her own personal touches in the flat, and she has a creative flair. Our experience of the neighbourhood, is that when you turn left and walk a block or two, you find a more prosperous, stylish area, with lovely shops and restaurants, and when you turn right, and walk a block or two, the atmosphere is less inviting, though not a bad area, it isn't as nice as the one to the right! Unfortunately we didn't get to meet Valentine in person, but her instructions for assessing the key through a number- coded box were clear and worked first time. We had a comfortable three nights in the flat.
