we stayed at coralie's flat for a week. it was great. it's exactly like shown in the pictures, small but very practical and sufficient for two people. the bed is very comfortable, the shower is wonderful, and there's everything you need in the kitchen. the location is very easy, right around the corner from republique metro station; since it's so central we walked to most places. coralie is a great host, she couldn't be there herself when we arrived, but she arranged so that her friend made sure that we were home safe. she left us treats and sent in her recommendations for paris, from which we received some great tips. she also gave us a discount, because the building was going through major renovation at the time, very kind of her. we had a great time, and i strongly recommend coralie's flat; we'd be back.
