I would highly recommend staying at Sophie’s apartment. The apartment is one block from the Metro 11 stop, making is very easy to access all of Paris & it’s suburbs. In the other direction is a great bakery, Artisan Bakery, a well stocked grocery store, and a full laundromat (which we didn’t use). The neighborhood is pretty quiet, enabling a good night sleep even with the windows open. Sitting on the garden balcony with our morning coffee was amazing & romantic. The apartment decoration was a bit eclectic, but very tasteful. All the indoor & outdoor plants made the apartment feel like home. The kitchen was well stocked with kitchen utensils & appliances. It was very easy to make breakfast for the family & pre pack a lunch. We would definitely select Sophie’s place again when out travels take us to Paris.
