Our host made us feel like we were family coming for a stay. The apartment has a great location, we were facing the river and it was calm and for a brief moment you could experience living as a true Parisian. Our expectations were met and surpassed, Caroline and Jean have succeeded in providing every comfort! Everything that is listed in the description is included, the only thing that is not listed is the intangible feeling of living in that space. For those of you that, like us, are concerned about booking outside of the normal hotel system, I assure you, this is a wonderful find.
