Nation :quiet, sunny, private house***+ free pking in private street.

Our property was ideal! We were in a friendly neighborhood and our host was fabulous! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would come back again and again.

There is a lot to like in this little row house. It is airconditioned, which remains rare in Paris-- that alone would be enough for gratitude during heat waves.Martine is a generous host; she is flexible with arrival & departure when possible, left welcoming treats, & had recommendations for the local bakeries, cafés, etc.; her neighbor checked us in & gave us a tour of the neighborhood. The house is beautifully decorated & equipped with thoughtful touches, washing machine, drying rack, bags for toting groceries, etc. Good bed & comfortable chairs. Kitchen is tight, but well-organized.If this is your first time in Paris, a more central location might be more atmospheric; otherwise, , this is well positioned, with a metro and bus connections to almost anywhere in the city. There is a good open-air market twice a week around the corner.The one caveat is the organization. It is on 3 stories; the main living area on the ground floor; the bedroom & only bathroom on the 1st floor (2nd American style) and a 3rd basement level room with a convertible sofa-bed. Getting to the toilet from the lower room requires negotiating 2 sets of steepish stairs & going past the bed of those sleeping upstairs. It is thus great for one person or a couple (as long as no one has mobility issues) & likely to work well for close friends/family, but not ideal for someone else who needs to get up a lot. But as long as you know that, it is a lovely place to stay!

We stayed for one week with our family of four. The place is just as advertised: a well supplied and decorated home away from home. The check in process was warm and efficient. The neighbourhood is quiet and safe, with easy access to the Metro and RER. Wonderful bakeries and restaurants are within walking distance. There is a wonderful neighbourhood market twice weekly. The host was quick to respond with personalized assistance, Overall a quiet retreat at the end of multiple busy days. Thank you Martine for making our first visit to Paris very memorable!

Very Good!!!
