Nathalie was extremely helpful with directions, where to get the apartment key, etc. as she was unable to meet us in person. In every way, she was responsive and helpful.
The neighborhood is one in which I used to live and it is just as charming as in the old days. A great mix of food, fashion, and other neighborhood stores. Almost next door is the charming Place du Marche Sainte Catherine with several restaurants. We enjoyed l'Epouvantail as well as Gaspard de la Nuit, a few blocks closer to the Bastille. St. Paul metro is very close and convenient.
