Bernadette is a VERY gracious, kind and lovely Lady. Her apartment is much like a boat, as described. It is cozy and efficient. It and she represent a tremendous value to the renter of her very lovely studio. Additionally, it opens onto a private, secure, secluded and peaceful garden in the heart of the Latin Quarter. Paris is a walker's dream. I cannot say enough good things about my experience of 3 days there. You will LOVE Bernadette and her apartment.
