Beautiful room and super nice host
September 2023
It was great staying at Farida. The room was delightful. As for the neighborhood it was quiet.
Faruda's place is close to Metro lines 6 and 9. These lines takes you to most touristic site. Her area has several restaurants, food trucks, movie theater, a library( François Mitterand); with a lovely café inside, an Art enclave(100 Rue Frigo), several supermarkets, Pastry and bakery shops. Her home is at walking distance to the Seine River. There are several restaurants aboard barges or boats on the Seine river Words are not sufficient to describe the area.August 2023
I came to Paris for a two-week summer school programme, and the stay at Farida's was perfect. The apartment was close to public transport, with metro stations and bus stops within six minutes walk. The location was opposite to BnF, and I could enjoy the scenery of the River Seine from the terrace of my room. Farida maintained the whole apartment nice and tidy, made everything organised. She was also open to chat, either in English or in French. I would definitely choose to stay with her if I'm visiting Paris again. Strongly recommended!
Merci beaucoup, Farida!

Merci beaucoup pour les 6 mois merveilleux:)
Thank you for the wonderful 6 months:)When I came, I couldn't pay the full amount in advance. She was flexible and allowed me to pay monthly. Also, I had a hard time making French friends in France, but her family and granddaughter were very kind and accepted me. I spent Christmas Eve with them and they invited me to a great dinner. In addition, the location is close to two stations, making it a very convenient place for students. I often used the nearby student restaurant, but I didn't use it, but there is a famous large library in front of the apartment. There is also a large night bus station just a short walk away which has helped me many times. It's very safe at night and I've never been in any danger. Farida likes to be very clean, and I often messed up the inside of the refrigerator, but she cleaned it without me noticing it. So you will be able to use like restrooms and showers cleanly during your stay. Also, she is very fun to talk to, so don't be shy and talk to her a lot. Even if I didn't speak French very well, she didn't mind and tried to understand me. It was suitable practice for my French. Unfortunately, I was extremely shy and regretted staying so quiet during my stay. However, it was good that there was someone who cared about my physical condition every time I met. I got along very well with her granddaughter, such as going to Disney. Sorry for the late review. I look forward to seeing you again next time. Merci beaucoup encore:) Bisous!

Farida is a really charming lady, very kind and she's always helped me with everything.
It's not difficult to feel soon welcomed by her, I had really the best cohabitation ever.
Plus, the house is in a beatiful area of Paris.October 2019
