The studio is very quiet, yet perfectly situated in a busy area where I always felt safe. Great if you like to walk everywhere, but also right by the metro and Perrache. It had a pretty view of the basilica (which is illuminated at night) and an extremely comfortable sofa bed. Another plus is that the washing machine did a great job of wringing the clothes, so drying took little time. It does have one flight of stairs, but this was not an issue for me. Hosts were flexible and always pleasant. Highly recommended.
