Florence's place was perfect in every way! Florence herself was a wonderful host -- very accommodating, kind, professional, and checked in to make sure everything was ok during the stay. The check-in process was easy. Florence gave lots of good recommendations for places to eat in the neighborhood. The apartment is warm and spacious and cozy and very nicely decorated. The wood floors are gorgeous and the apartment complex itself is lovely with an inner courtyard and very nicely decorated with a beautiful winding staircase up to the second floor. You really feel like you are at home here in the middle of Paris, and yet it's quiet and tucked away in a super fun central neighborhood. You can walk to many things - bakeries, restaurants, bars, and sites. There are two bakeries around the corner to get fresh baguettes and pastries. I thought the 'pain aux raisins' at the corner bakery was the best I've ever had! There are several metro stops nearby - super close with many options to travel all around the city. If you want to cook, you have everything you need right there - fully stocked - and don't have to worry about buying oil or spices. The stay was great and I highly recommend!
