Despina is a kind and thoughtful host and her apartment is perfect for a Paris visit. She had fresh flowers in several rooms and gave us fresh strawberries that we ate with our breakfasts. Her apartment is big by Paris (and New York) standards, is clean as possible, quiet, and beautifully decorated. You have a full kitchen and a separate comfortable room to read and relax in. The bed and pillows are very comfortable. It is easy to take the bus or Metro to all of the Paris attractions, There is a grocery store a few feet from your home and a great bakery a block away were I bought pastries every day.
