Claire is a good host. She offered coffee or tea. The room is the same from the pictures, it is clean, and has a comfortable bed. The place is situated just across the Jardin des Plantes. You could also walk from there to Notre Dame, and Pantheon. The only issue I have is the room leeks the smoke from smoking. I am not a smoker and it was really a bad experience for me. I have opened the window to be able to get a fresh air, and air out the room. She smokes inside the house. It was not mentioned on the information about the smoking. So my last 3 days I went to a hotel. Just an FYI: There is really no breakfast, coffee and tea is offered if you want. Like I said her place is on spot. Nice room with a window across the garden. SMOKERS will be so happy and will totally enjoy her place.
