This was our first trip to Paris and I coundn't imagine it to be any better. Catherina met us at her apartment and showed us around a little. Her apartment looks just as the pictures and had everything you could possibly need. The area is fabulous. It is within walking distant to several attractions. The streets are filled with restaurants, bakeries, cafes, shops and a market is just around the corner. The area leaves nothing to be desired. We always felt safe when waking around no matter what time is was.
