We loved our stay at Monia's place on the Isle de St. Louis! I cannot imagine a more perfect location for a stay in Paris. Just steps to Notre Dame cathedral, the Louvre, Shakespeare and Co., and the Latin District. Such a picturesque neighborhood, and the apartment is in an amazing old building--from the 1600s I believe--so much character. Others have commented on the low ceiling with the beautiful old hand-hewn wood beam--indeed, a tall person would not enjoy staying here. Otherwise, it is marvelous. We really appreciated that Monia thoughtfully provided eggs, (lactose free) milk, juice, bread, jam and fruit--so convenient to have all this at hand for a quick breakfast or snack. Check-in very easy with door code and combination code to retrieve the apt key. Would love to stay at Monia's place anytime we are in Paris, and highly recommend to others, as long as you are not taller than, say, 5'9''.
