Our host, Maguy, was very welcoming and greatly enhanced our visit to Paris. We arrived at CDG airport on our 28th wedding anniversary and after making it through the airport and bus ride to Paris, we called Maguy to let her know we were on our way via the Metro. She was at the door to greet us and give us instructions about the room and how to get around in Paris. We stayed for three nights and enjoyed wonderful breakfasts with fresh bread and marmelade. The room was clean and neat, and the shower and bathroom facilities were very acceptable. Maguy left for her vacation on the second day and had a friend take care of the flat for her, which worked out great. It was nice to have a "home base" near the center of Paris. The flat is several Metro stops from the city center, but it was easy to get where we wanted to go. We walked from the flat to the St. Martin canal boat tour, which we greatly enjoyed. All in all, we greatly enjoyed our visit to Paris, and staying at Maguy's flat made it a very stress-free experience.
