Very nice french apartment, very clean, with spacious and easy to use kitchen (large kitchen table, gas range and oven, refrigerator, plates, etc.) which came in very handy during our trip. Stephanie is an excellent host who responded to our communications quickly and was right there to greet us upon arrival and tour us through her apartment. She has several books on activities in Paris and a really nice blue binder that summarizes information for the apartment and Paris. The beds were very comfortable, the bathroom spacious and clean (including clothes washer) and the metro (Gare du Nord) is less than 5 min. walk from the apartment. Only precaution is to be wary of pickpockets at/ around Gare du Nord. Otherwise, very nice apartment, near the metro and very affordable for the value provided. We're very grateful for Stephanie's support!! :)
