Pierre's place is perfect. Big windows you can hear life of Paris outside (not all night long ) - and you get light and fresh air AND the bakery on the corner ! You can smell their bread in the morning if you have the windows open (which I recommend). Pierre is amazing very communicative and helpful with great recommendations. The neighborhood is just perfect. Walk to amazing cafes, bistros, shops, market, boutiques, lots of museums - happening people in a happening place. Lots of young creative people to meet! Also - the cafe on the corner (opposite corner to the bakery) is called Cafe de la Poste and it is the best. Friendly people working there and friendly customers dining there. I quickly became a regular there for my morning cafe au lait and pain au chocolate. I can't wait to go back ! Pierre's place is lovely - lots of closet space GREAT shower - elevator in the building and close to many different metros. Would love to stay at Pierre's in the future.
