Vida was very welcoming. She was a great help in recommendations in the area. Obviously this was a hire of a room with sharing the facilities with Vida. This worked as well as possible. Vida was generous with use of the shared facilities and had a great balance of keeping herself to herself, but we had a couple of real pleasant hours with her on our last night. The situation of the appartment is in a terrific place. (On the 19th floor direct over the Seine with great views over Paris). The appartment is in the 15th Arrondissement. This is not an area which is on the tourist routes. It has a village feel with lots of small bistrots and small shops and we really enjoyed the area.
