We had the best time at Zazie's beautiful apartment. It has lovely furniture, flowering plants, fine linens, a private shower, reliable elevator to 3rd floor (2nd etage:)), free wifi, in the chic St Germaine des Pres quarter. We had very interesting conversations each morning over fresh crispy croissants, delicious coffee, fresh fruit and other treats. Zazie is a lovely, kind, accomplished Parisian with loads of helpful information and a great sense of humor. The location is amazing; very convenient for the metro, the bus and walking to really nice specialty shops and excellent restaurants. The Luxembourg garden is only 3 blocks away and that is very impressive. It's a large park with many sculptures, flowering trees, manicured lawns, the palace, peaceful areas, tennis courts, old men playing chess, and, new since I was here 30 years ago, many people jogging around the circumference path.
We can't recommend this charming hostess and room rental enough; wonderful!
