Martine and her apartment in the 16th are a joy ! The views out the many windows are superb and very Paris with the Eiffel peeking in. The decorating touches in the apartment are amazing and not like any other Airbnb where I have stayed. Besides the beauty there are closets galore, hangers for coats, skirts, pants and coats, and waste baskets where you need them. In the kitchen there is every kind of knife you could want and cookware for preparing any dish and wine openers. There are dishes, serving dishes, cups, and glassware for every need.
The # 9 metro is across the street and bus 32 is at the foot of the building. Bus 72, 82, and bus 63 are only steps away, as is a post office, a pharmacy, a bakery and two markets. (and Martine has even included a rolling cart to bring back groceries!) Restaurants Waknine and Bambini and several other cafes are right near by and the Palais Galliera and the Musee d'Moderne Art are around the corner. Every Wed. and Sat, morning there is a huge market one street away that provides so much local color with vegetables, fruits, fish, cheese, middle eastern dishes to take home , scarves, sweaters, antiques, jewelry and more .
Martine is a dear and beautiful lady who made every effort to help us in any way that she could. We feel as though we've made a friend for life !
