Where to start?! Beatrice’s studio is the perfect little getaway for a single person or couple wanting to get a real feel of what living in Paris might be like. It is small but perfectly formed (and not that small for Paris, really!) - the space is well designed with clever furniture and very stylish finishings. The bed was remarkably comfortable - so much so that I am going to get one for my own guest room at home! In terms of location I think it was perfect - close to several metro/RER stations, in a lovely ‘local’ neighbourhood, not overwhelmed by tourists. Beatrice as a host was lovely - she was out of town when I arrived but she had thought of everything to make sure I got in easily, and we caught up the following day so she could give me some more info about the flat and some excellent tips for specialist shopping (yarn and fabrics) around the city. I would definitely recommend Beatrice’s place to anyone who wants to pretend to be a local for a few days - I loved my stay!
