We enjoyed our stay in this lovely apartment. Katia and Pierre-Antoine were very accommodating and communicative. It was big enough for three adults: my husband, myself, and our adult daughter. It was nice to have a kitchen for breakfast and snacks and to sit around the dining room table while relaxing. There is a living room with a pull-out sofa where my daughter slept and balconies in the front rooms that provided a cool breeze. It is on the fifth floor, but there is a lift. Very typical of French apartment building.
The apartment is conveniently located off a side street near the Pernety metro in the 14th arrondissement, close to Montparnasse. Pierre-Antoine made sure we knew all the best places to dine and to buy food. We liked returning to the 'hood' after a long day of sightseeing and attending the French Open.
In a city like Paris, where each of us had been at least several times, it is nice to have a more authentic French experience than what a hotel can provide. This apartment fits the bill. We also loved all the artwork and beautiful touches (crown molding, fireplaces) in the apartment.
Thank you, Katia, Tatiana and Pierre-Antoine.
