The apartment was just like it was shown in the photos. A very elegant yet comfortable space in a lovely neighbourhood. We felt very secure and relaxed there. There are wonderful tall windows so the apartment is full of light. The beds are very comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped and the bathroom is a dream (best water pressure I have ever experienced - at home or abroad!) Also, with four people staying there, it was very convenient to have the toilet in its own separate space. Alexandre met us exactly when he said he would and showed us the ropes. It is a short walk to the metro station and everything you need is nearby. We loved the neighbourhood and really enjoyed walking there.
