Maud was a fantastic host, and did her best to make our stay happen when our schedules changed and trains were missed. Her place is in a lively area, close to Metro stations and the bustling restaurants of Rue Montorgueil. The ascent is something to be prepared for, (especially when its 35° C), but the reward is a cozy place with a great view of the Paris rooftops and the feeling of being nestled into city life.
