I had a wonderful stay at Frédérique's place. It was very conveniently located with everything nearby and very walkable: many delicious places to eat, a supermarket right downstairs, etc. I found the surrounding neighbourhood (Bastille) to also be quite a comfortable and safe, even late at night. The apartment itself (while not having the high-tech and modern amenities you might expect from a hotel) is very cozy, charming, and has everything you need for a pleasant stay. It really made me feel like I was a Parisian. Frédérique was very communicative about any details, easy to reach, and friendly to talk to. I would recommend anyone to stay at this apartment of hers.
