Isabelle was a wonderful host. She is extremely responsive to requests and really went out of her way to make the apartment welcoming and nice. She provided us with port wine, drinks and breakfast and snacks for the first day. She also uses very nice bed linens and towels. We stayed for a whole month and she provided us with weekly cleaning service so that was really nice. The only negative is that the kitchen sink is really small (a bar sink only) so it is difficult to wash pots and pans. It is more of a kitchenette, but there are lots of restaurants and bakeries nearby so it wasn't much of an issue. The bedroom is located in a finished attic so the ceiling was very low. After bumping our heads, we moved the bed around to the higher portion of the attic to avoid the problem. There was ample storage for clothing and belongings with an oversized armoire/closet. The apt is convenient to walking everywhere. Only downside is that there is a noisy bar on the corner so it gets noisy from Th - Sat nights, but Isabelle does provide earplugs. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay. She also had ALOT of English TV channels which was very nice.
