Catherine welcomed me warmly to her home, accommodating an early morning check in for a weekend stay. She showed me everything I needed to know about the apartment, and provided coffee, bread, and jam for an easy quick bite to get me started in the morning. She was also gracious regarding my very bad early morning spoken French ;). She provided her phone number in case I needed anything, which was a comfort. Catherine’s apartment is a roomy one bedroom with lots of light. It’s very comfortable and it feels like being at home. The bed is extremely comfortable – I slept so well during my weekend stay. The neighborhood is convenient with buses and a short walk to several metro stops, an outdoor food market, lots of restaurants and shops. It’s also a pleasant walk towards to the Eiffel tower or the Luxembourg Gardens or Tour Montparnasse. There’s also a grocery store in the building, which is another convenience especially if you are staying longer than I did. I hope to stay here again on a future visit. I highly recommend staying at Catherine's apartment.
