Our stay in Paris this year, our first visit, was made exceptionally comfortable by out choosing Montmartre as the headquarters for our 2 weeks of exploration of the wonderful old city. We took advantage of the convenient public transportation both bus and metro, traveling easily to each day's destination. Whether dining, shopping or seeing the sites we loved the central location. On the streets surrounding the rental we found many opportunities to fill the fridge each day: breads, meats, cheeses which all abound in the 5 block radius. The fully equipped kitchen facilitated the preparation of all our meals with the clean up made simple utilizing the dishwasher and sink.

Another feature of the rental that surprised us was the clothes washer and dryer which stretched our "one bag per person" (airline limits) of outfits for our two week stay. The Macintosh desktop computer and the availability of free calling to the US helped make our stay worry free, allowing us to touch base with children and family whom we (conveniently) left behind.

Our choice of renting a furnished apartment worked well for us, enabled us to maintain a budget and provided many comforts that we have not expected in this old european city. Our hostess, Yetunde was extremely helpful in her orientation, check-in, check-out simple and quick, yet thorough and the apartment clean, comfortable and warm. It WAS February. We'll be sure to utilize Feels Like Home again on our next visit.
