POSITIVES. Julia herself is a delightful person, very kind and very “simpatico," with a real artistic eye. She met me personally and gave me a full tour of the small studio apartment. Everything is in one room: bed, kitchenette, shower and toilet (though Julia gave me permission to use the toilet down the hall). The apartment is nicely decorated and thoughtfully furnished, and the bed is comfortable. And of course, its location around the corner from the Theatre des Champs Elysee is terrific. NEGATIVE. You can hear the people in the neighboring apartment, or perhaps workers, quite clearly.
