My partner and I are just back from a 5 night stay in Paris and would highly recommend Carole's studio as a base for exploring the city. Carole was at the studio to welcome us and even though our flight was delayed (and phones not working!) she did not seem inconvenienced in the least. She had a map for us of nearby restaurants and amenities, as well as books and guides. The space is small but perfect for what we needed, clean and secure. I have to say that we felt very safe here during our stay.

The studio was very easy to find from Nation metro station, and also Rue de Boulets, which we discovered another day. It really was in an ideal location as Nation has many metro lines, or can at least get you to a station where you can change over. We didn't have to make more than one change getting anywhere and we had a busy few days!

The area of Nation may seem a bit out from the centre of the Paris but as we soon discovered, it was not actually that far - maybe 15 minutes on the metro? It also has the added benefit of not being too touristy so the restaurants etc are much more reasonably priced!

If we travel to Paris again I think we would definitely try to stay here again.
