Il Patio is fantastic! We had such a terrific vacation at Lucia's place. It is even better than the photos. It is such a stylish, sunny apartment with so much space. We 3 bathrooms, a real shower and a real tub, it could have accommodated many more people. February was not the month to enjoy the outdoor patio, but that didn't stop us from trying. It felt like another world. Full open sky, beautiful outdoor lights, yet quiet and secluded in the heart of the City.
We found the neighborhood charming and close to public transportation. We even took the tram to the Paris flea market for a beautiful trip on the edge of Paris. There are many supermarkets close as well as gourmet, organic (bio) bakeries.
Lucia gave us terrific recommendations for restaurants. We ate a fantastic chef run gourmet bistro with fresh and interesting food. I would return in a heartbeat.
