Beautiful, spacious, well-equipped apartment in a great central location. It is exactly as the photos show! And the furniture is much more comfortable than it looks. Catherine communicated with us several times between when we booked and when we arrived so that we felt very comfortable finding the apartment and checking in with Mrs. Rodrigues after our very long travel day. The street is busy, but the windows are snug and modern and block the noise almost completely. On floor 2 (American 3) with small elevator that we only used for luggage at check in and check out. Gladine's (the restaurant across the street which was always full every time we looked out the windows) has really friendly service and homey Basque food. We would gladly stay here again!
