Staying at Melanie's appartment is the next best thing to being at home. Melanie was great to deal with answering all of our questions and making sure everything was set up for us to have a wonderful time in Paris. The apartment itself is lovely and easily big enough for our family of five. We enjoyed being close to supermarkets, a fresh food market, restaurants and the train. We found the kitchen easy to use and we loved sitting at the dining table and sharing meals and doing homework. The bottom floor is air-conditioned and the top isn't but we found that with all the windows open we didn't need it anyway. When we did have one issue with the internet, Melanie was incredibly quick to offer suggestions of how to fix it, which we did quickly. In the end we loved our time at Melanie's and in Paris so much that we extended our trip. I guess the only issue in the apartment would be the very creaky floorboards but even they just seems to add character to a beautiful place. Thank you so much for hosting us and looking after us so well Melanie and family. x
