Our stay at Marie Sophie's apartment could not have been more perfect! We were there for almost two weeks, and we did not want to leave. We were a couple. plus 3 single adults. By using the comfortable couch in the very private study, we each had a separate room. The apartment was very spacious and comfortable for all of us.

The location is great, too. We went shopping every morning for pastries, and we often ate lunch in the apartment, as well - the food from Bon Marche is not to be believed. There were nice restaurants near by, and a few times we brought back takeout from nearby places - we especially liked the Greek place that was one and a half blocks away.

The neighborhood is completely quiet and the nearby businesses all seem to be local, independent businesses, not tourist traps or big chains. The metro is just a half a block away, so it is easy to get anywhere in Paris. The main museum district is a nice 25-minute walk away if you enjoy the exercise and exploring.

We were lucky to be able to meet Marie Sophie, as she waited for us on the afternoon when we arrived. She was very welcoming and helpful in orienting us. She had done a wonderful job of documenting her recommendations for restaurants, food shopping, and even doctors, in case we had an emergency. She even showed us the manuals for all of the appliances. We used the washer/dryer and the dishwasher frequently, and everything in the apartment worked flawlessly.

You should not hesitate to stay here. For the number of people that can fit in the apartment, it is a very good value.
