Catherine’s place is very centrally located in an interesting and safe neighborhood. We had a pleasant walk to the Louvre and Eiffel Tower without too much difficulty. The Arc is a very close and easy walk and well worth climbing at night to see the view of the Eiffel Tower as it sparkles. Catherine provided useful tips and, as has already been mentioned, elegantly sits at breakfast to engage in conversation. The period accommodation is spacious and quirky, the bed is comfortable and breakfast consisted of many little different items, including freshly squeezed orange juice. Catherine speaks very good English, is prompt in her communication and is very helpful.
