We had great time during our stay in Paris at 48 Rue de Federation. A nice residential area, comfortable and welcoming facilities, and a slew of restaurants in the immediate neighborhood that would satisfy the most demanding visitor. We are not tourists as Paris is second home for us and staying in a furnished apartment this time with so many accessible facilities made it worthwhile.It is a pity that the nationwide transport strike that has been going on for the pat 31 days made it difficult to move around as the streets were congested beyond any reasonable belief or level and dampened the spirits
