Alice went out of her way to make us welcome, providing drinks in fridge and access to her very individual entertainment system (for example). She also offered advice and information about the local area, restaurants and so on. The flat was well supplied in traditional style, and really we wanted for nothing in the way of comfort and amenities. The local area is lovely, I had stayed there before so it was familiar. There are pretty good groceries etc very close by, and the metro is all of five mins away. For me it was huge plus to be near Musee Picasso and Musee Carnavalet, Place des Vosges, all wonderful. Alice herself could not have been more friendly, helpful and efficient in all arrangements. We would certainly consider returning, if she'll have us that is. It is on fifth floor but there is a lift, and the views are gorgeous. There is a washing machine, which we figured was a drier as well, an iron and board, a very efficient gas boiler, WiFi, the aforementioned entertainment system, loads of pretty lamps and other objects, and for an apartment in such a central location, a great feeling of space, very cleverly used. The whole is not overwhelmed with mod cons, so that nothing spoils the 1950's look, but no comfort is missing either.
