My son and I were visiting Paris for the first time from Canada. Upon our arrival Helene greeted us and got us settled in her beautiful apartment that definitely lives up to the pictures. There was a bottle of wine and tips to local travel and restaurants waiting for us, a nice welcome for sure. Helene was very helpful and emailed us even more information after we met. I would definitely recommend Helene's flat and would stay there again when I returned to Paris.
