This wonderful hostess and her apartment deserve more than 5 stars! The location on the left bank is spectacular: you open the building’s massive wooden security door, and your view is across the bridge to the Louvre! The apartment was built in the 18th century, complete with half-beam walls & ceilings and wonderfully antique stairways. The apartment is a mix of very modern features in the bathroom and in the cooking area. There are lovely antique tables, cupboards, and a large wardrobe. The dishes are lovely blue-and-white Limoges China! The coffee-making options are first class. Lots of towels for the kitchen and for the bath.
Many, many personal touches. We felt as if this place was truly our home-away-from-home. Great recommendations for where to find restaurants, markets, and patisseries! We thank Julia for making our 9 days in Paris so very special.
