Marie's apartment was just as listed. It was clean, quiet, safe and cozy. The apartment's proximity to the (#3) Metro stations at Wagram and Malesherbes were very convenient to get around Paris. The pastry shop across the street sold great quiches, croissants and coffee/tea. The Sesame Cafe further down the street (pass the Wagram Metro stop) was great as well. We heard the neighborhood doesn't see many tourists so you're mingling w/ the 'real' Parisians which was great. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Marie's apartment; she was helpful and responded to all my messages. We'll definitely be back to Paris very soon.
