Cécile's house is exactly what you would expect from the description. The photos give an accurate portrayal of the space, and if anything it was nicer than we were expecting. It was perfect for six of us - parents, grandparents, and 2 kids (ages 2 and 4). The layout is such that the grandparents had their own master suite, and the two bedrooms down the hall were for us and the kids, which allowed us all a bit of privacy.
The apartment is conveniently just about 1 block from the grocery store and a quick walk to several Metro stops and a park with a playground. We enjoyed walking in the park when we had spare time. There is also a market that shows up several mornings on the corner across the street with lovely fresh food. We love to cook, and the kitchen is well set up for this. In the apartment there is plenty of space to spread out and relax in the living and dining rooms. The beds were very comfortable and Cécile even had a crib ready for us. There is an elevator to help bring luggage in/out, if needed.
Cécile is a wonderful and thoughtful host. She had prepared a helpful list of nearby attractions and restaurants, which made for several fun days with the kids. She was very prompt for communications and with check-in/check-out. She assembled a lovely basket of foods for breakfasts and snacks. She even helped us to call a taxi to get to the airport when we were leaving.
Overall, we highly recommend staying at this place, especially if you have kids and need the space. Cécile is a lovely host and we would happily stay here again.
