A real taste of real Paris. Valerie's place is stylish, with a loft feel and is easy to live in. Montmartre is a few Metro stops away, easy access by Metro to pretty much all of Paris - multiple Metro lines in the Stalingrad station make getting around very easy. The beautiful courtyard kept us cool in the Parisian heat of August. It is very rare to have this calm space that does not pick up all the street noise. Valerie was a fantastic host, she went out of her way to help us when we realised we'd left important documents in the apartment after leaving. We would definitely stay here again.
