Alexandra's apartment was the perfect location for getting around Paris, very close to the metro and within walking distance of many good restaurants, etc. It was a lovely place to come home to after long, hot days of sightseeing. Alexandra was very responsive by email and helpful in letting us know what was going on. We were met by the housekeeper, Cathy, who was also very helpful and personable. The cute little balconies were nice for sitting in the early morning, or in the evenings, watching the nightlife below on the streets (it's just above a good cafe!). The roll out bed was comfortable and the bathroom had a good rainfall shower! The bedroom is a bit tight when the bed is out, but it can be put back into a couch which increases the living space of the room quite a bit. We will definitely stay here again when in Paris.
