Seaside and Wine Country Delight

Everything was perfect! The flat is bright and very well furnished and everything you need, you'll find! What a pleasure to watch the sun rising in the morning... The area is great for wine, ocean & nature lovers. We enjoyed ourselves very much. About Karine: she is a wonderful host & she cares for the well-being of her hosts. Every question was answering within the day if not the hour! I highly recommend to book her flat!

The apartment was great, newly renovated, just a few min drive from the beach. Karine was very helpful and welcoming. A nice place to stay if you want to explore Medoc region and enjoy some sun.

Great apartment for the price - top location just 5 minutes from port clignancourt! Thanks so much!

Nice apartment. Small, compact and well formed. However, there are a few signs that this apartment is well used by airbnb vacationers. The washing machine was not working on our stay, the dishwasher tablet tray was broken making it difficult to use, the shower head is broken, there are stains all over the couch and the light on the extractor fan didn't work. Other than that Karine is a good host with good communication skills. The apartment is not centrally located but is fairly easily to access on the metro (about 30 minutes from the centre). The building it is in seems like it is falling apart and doesn't look too safe, but the apartment itself is of good build quality. Overall a good experience and for the price the apartment represents good value for money. Recommended.

We have been with 2 persons in this beautiful apartment in lovely Montmatre with metro access nearby. If we had a question, Karine was responding immediately. We would always love to go there again… next time in Paris. Thanks Karine!

Schöne, gemütliche Wohnung. Ruhig.

Good communication and recommendations. Very nice cozy apartment with lots of equipment. Comfortable bed. Kitchen was good for our cooking needs, and the dish-washer was a bless for our relaxation. Close-by to metro, and Velib station. Just a pity that we didn't meet personally, but all went perfect with email, sms and airbnb msgs.

This is my first experience with airbnb. I stay with my husband and 2 small children (4 and 7 years) in the apartement. Karine is great about responding an questions. The apartment is like you see on the pictures. The situation of the apartement is a little bit strange. The restaurants on the left and right by the enterance were closed. Unfortunately no nice restaurants in the neighborhood. The bathroom is very small. The bed, sofa and kitchen are ok. When we first arrived it was really cold and there was a weird smell in the apartment. There are a few games inside the room. The children loves to play UNO. View host response

The apartment is located near Saint Mande, a train station towards the end of Line 1 on Metro. It is about ten minutes walk to the apartment, including a climb to the fourth level of the apartment building (4th floor America, 3rd floor European). The apartment is located in a nice and peaceful neighbourhood, which feels very safe. The aprtment utilizes its available space in a very efficient manner. The kitchen area is small, but a dishwasher, a cooking range, a washer (which also has a drying cycle), and small appliances like microwave etc are very well located in the appartment. There is a grocery store about seven minutes away which is very convenient. While climbing the spiral stairs, be careful to stay close to the wall rather than to the railing to avoid missing your steps. They can be a bit tricky. I had a problem with respect to linen and bedsheets. They did not appear clean and I contacted Karine with this issue by email (she was away on vacation at the time.) She mentioned that her housekeeper had washed all bed sheets prior to our arrival, but I doubt it very much. Except for the bed sheets in the main bedroom, they did not appear clean, nor did they feel or smell fresh. The couch cushions also need cleaning as they have stains and are due for a wash. However, this is a problem that can be easily fixed. Overall, the apartment is very convenient. Line 1 train takes to many major attractions including Louvre, Control, Arc de Triomph etc. View host response

Staying in Karine's place was great! It was my second time staying there. Lots of space, extremely comfortable, and its has easy access to the best of Paris. Perfect!

We stayed in the apartment for 4 nights and had a blast! Easy metro access and a clean place to stay. We would definitely stay there again.

My first experience.with AirBnB and it satisfy my expectation well, especially my wife. Karine fully equipped apartment really helped us a lot, particularly the kitchen. We do not use the washing machine and the dishwasher, not because they are broken but we do not know how to operate them. The stairs a little steep and small but manageable even with large backpacks. The proximity to Saint-Mande metro, about 5 minutes walking, is very helpful in planning our trip in Paris. Overall the apartment gives what it promises to.

Karine and I have been friends for just under a decade, and I can happily say that she's infinitely reliable and trustworthy. I'm also sure I could rely on Karine for all the insider information in whatever city she might be in, and Paris is no exception. Highly recommended, an excellent vintage!

I've known Karine for years, and having been a house guest many times, can say that she is a wonderful host, with a beautiful, clean apartment and an extensive insight into Paris. Staying with her is always a pleasure, as she's so laid back and funny- she's the kind of person who'll go out of her way to make you feel welcome and at home.

I have known Karine for a long time and she's a clever and funny person who you can trust .Her appartment is a lovely place which will make you feel right at home !
