Christine's place was in a wonderful location. There are 3 different access points to the metro (1 about 3 minutes away), there were several local grocery stores for purchasing supplies, and many local restaurants/shops in the neighborhood. The corner bakery had delicious bread and treats. I would recommend it. Also, there is a large market on Thursday and Saturday just minutes away that is a great place to go to gather lunch/dinner ingredients.
The place itself is perfect for 1-2 people. It is nice to have a kitchen to make meals in if you choose and there is an elevator in building to help with getting luggage to her place.
Christine was very responsive to any questions I had and even left us a bottle of prosecco for our arrival. If you are staying in the Bastille area I would recommend this location.
