We had a long stay at Carole’s, and it’s a great spot. The location is quiet but super convenient to the train and other destinations around the city. The flat is inviting and has lovely decor. The kitchen is large and fully stocked with really high quality cookware.
After reading the reviews, I asked Carole in advance if she was going to be in her downstairs apartment. She wasn’t there most of the time, and she let me know when she would be. She’s a very nice person and great host, but it is true that when someone is in the lower apartment you can hear quite a bit (eg coughing, etc). Overall this was a fantastic place and I’d book it again in a heartbeat.
