Christine is a very warm and welcoming host offering a room in her lovingly and with great taste decorated own flat. I felt very much at home and thoroughly enjoyed the spacious, sunlit room on the 6th floor with huge plants on the surrounding balcony and beautiful views.
The area is very central and there are loads of superb restaurants and bars close by.
Even though it easy to get to by public transport, I walked the very pleasant route from her flat to Chatalet Les Halles along Rue Montmartre every day, which is about 15 - 20 minutes.... there is lots to see on the way and never felt long.
