The apartment was very clean and had everything we needed to function daily before and after our tours and walks. For us it was the first time using Airbnb and staying in an apartment when traveling abroad. Initially, I was a little overwhelmed with the details of the contract and the things we needed to keep in mind to do when arriving and departing. However, the fact that Dominique could communicate in English and that she was promptly available when I texted or e-mailed her with questions, made a big difference in our level of comfort. I really thank her for being available and responding quickly. Being able to use the house phone for calls to family in USA was an added benefit. The location of the apartment was great with little restaurants and especially, having the grocery store very close to get things we needed for breakfast or snacks. The taxis were only a block away. The metro station was close but we did not use it. We were a little intimidated due to our lack of ability to communicate in French beyond saying good morning and thank you.
Our 9 year old granddaughter loved the bed in the upper level. It was her cave or "tree house". For adults it is best to sleep on the first floor due to the low ceiling. In summary, we had a great time in Paris and thank Dominique for being there for us when we were in doubt with anything.
