Myriam was a wonderful host. I arrived in the middle of the big Paris transit strike and could not check in at the time agreed upon as her housekeeper had trouble making it across town. But Myriam herself met me a few hours later after fighting the traffic mess to get to the apartment.
The apartment was very clean and comfortably furnished. Although this would be classified as a studio apartment, it was much larger than I expected. The washer worked and there was plenty of hot water at good preasure for showers. The apartment was located on the ground floor and was an exceptional bargain for that. Security, even with the ground floor location, was good with metal shutters on the windows that could be closed and locked from the inside. The location for me was excellent, very near several bus stops and the Metro although the Metro wasn't running while I was there. If you are a first time traveler to Paris you may want to stay nearer the center of the city and the tourist destinations but I loved living like a local in this area. I would definitely stay here again.
