Anne Marie is a delightful hostess. We appreciate her offering her apartment to us. The opportunity to live like a local Parisian enriched our visit to the city. Apartment strengths: ideal location, with easy access to public transportation, numerous tourist sites, restaurants and shopping. Apartment very clean, and has necessary utensils, cooking supplies, extra towels, blankets, toiletries etc.
Apartment stayed relatively cool in the summer despite having no air conditioning. Quiet, no street noise. She is not fluent in English, but has written instructions in English to operate various equipment in apartment. Wi-Fi is very good. Washer and dryer. It was appreciated that we could check in with morning arrival, and she was accommodating with our delayed flight.
Weaknesses: this is an old building, lots of character, don't expect luxury. Small leather couch would not be comfortable to sleep.
We would definitely consider staying here again when we return to Paris.
