We, a family with young children, spent 4 nights in Clara's apartment. It's a delightful apartment with pleasant proportions, good light and it is full of character. There are many books and each room is painted beautiful and calming colours. The 2 bedrooms have comfortable beds and the living room is spacious with a comforable sofa and desk.
The apartment is in a quiet area, set within a historic block, overlooking a courtyard, and is minutes walk away from the Canal St. Martin, and the shops, restaurants and bars that line it. It is a long walk away from the main tourist attractions, or a short metro ride away. We met Clara at check-in and out and she was most gracious and quick in communication. Overall, I can highly recommend Clara's apartment as a place in which to experience living in Paris, even for a short while. Clara's place has an atmosphere of joie de vivre.
