Myself and my friend had a wonderful time staying at Bernadette's place. The little studio which is attached but separate to Bernadette's own apartment was full of character and charm. It is small (to be expected with Parisian apartments!) but had everything we needed and perfect for two (or two with a small child.) Bernadette is a very genuine, warm, kind lady and meeting both her and her grandchildren made our stay. Her building/apartment is full of history and the area is quiet, safe, close to the metro and situated beside the beautiful Jardins des Plantes. I would highly recommend anyone to stay here for a real taste of Paris and a warm hostess. Definitely have breakfast with Bernadette if you can too! It was a highlight of my trip.
