Pauline’s apartment is very tastefully appointed and a very nurturing and nourishing place to stay for anyone who - like me, enjoys the creative ambience of the 18th arrondissement, and the 9th. I was staying during a heatwave - 41 degrees, which meant I needed to have the front windows open at night, so it was a little bit noisy for my liking. But it is rarely this hot in Paris and with the windows closed the street noise is completely blocked. With the view over the Sacré Couer it is quite a magical place to stay. Also the availability of a lift is priceless!
