Private roof top in a stylish home

Warm and hospitable stay in a 1870 town house with its own garden, located in a private condominium and in a quiet and safest neighbourhood within Paris intramuros. Used to hosting international travellers, foreign students or just citizens of the world (except French ones) , I greatly enjoy helping them discover the city for a full immersion in French culture and habits according to their areas of interest. For those learning or improving their knowledge of the language, I provide French lessons on a daily basis, prices to be negotiated according to level and frequency. I am French, retired, speak fluent English, understand Spanish and a little German, but above all, I am an unconditional green and pet lover . The newly refurbished bedroom occupies the whole 2nd floor of the house and grants a complete privacy - ideal for those who want to study or work in a quiet environment, when not simply rest after a full day wandering throughout the city. The WIFI connection is excellent in the room. The shower is private but not on the same floor as the bedroom. Sheets, towels and a bath gown are provided every week. A hairdryer is also available. Laundry and cleaning on a weekly basis. The room fee includes access to the kitchen to prepare breakfast and fix a quick meal in the evening. During Spring and Summer time, the shady garden is a perfect place for a cup of tea or a drink at the end of the day if you are not tempted by the pub or the bistrot across the street. The minimum stay is 4 nights. For students on a long term stay (from 2 to 6 months), a preferential rate is granted according to the duration of the stay. Please note that there is a spare bed in the room which can be used for a short period (not more than a week) to welcome a family member or a friend (30 €/night). Room(s): 1.
