Veronique was very friendly and helpful. When I had to adjust my arrival time due to transportation issues, she delayed reporting to work to be present to greet me, which was awesome! Her limited English (plus a little made-up sign language) is sufficient to communicate with a total non-French speaker like me. She could advise about Paris very knowledgeably and wrote some tips down for me.
The location is convenient to the Metro, about 5 minutes from Gare du Lyon station, and about the same distance from the station Gare d'Austerlitz on another line of the Metro.
The room room and bathroom are fine, and breakfast good with tea, toast, yogurt, juice. She requires a deposit of 120 Euros in order to carry around a set of keys to her home, which is reasonable--apparently a previous guest lost a set and they were very expensive to replace. So, just plan to have the cash on hand for the deposit when you arrive. She has two cats, but they were not bothersome and I'm not allergic, so no issue for me, but something to consider if you have allergies. My only caveat is that the mattress on the double bed is bowed and should be replaced. On the whole, I was very satisfied with the cost as one person for the room and recommend staying with Veronique!
