Martine was friendly and informative upon check in. The apartment is in a great location, close to the metro subway. The apartment had a wonderful view. The downsides of the apartment are if the elevator goes out, be prepared to climb 7 flights of stairs. While I was there, the elevator went out. The bed is terribly uncomfortable, like sleeping on the floor. The pillows were awful as well, just flat and there was only 3 total, so for 2 guests, I don’t think that is sufficient. The shower floor is very hazardous as Martine has a white plastic shower grate which can easily slip and slide on the tile floor where missing tiles are being covered. I liked Martine when we met, I just wish she had been more responsive to my messages during my stay. Three messages were ignored by Martine in 4 days.
