The directions were very clear and the studio was easy to find. It's on the first floor, which in the United States would actually be called the 2nd floor. The stairs in the unit were easy to navigate. We stocked up on food to cook while visiting, and the kitchen had everything we needed. Laundry was easy as well. The location was really fun for us because it was so walkable, close to the metro, and close to so much in the area. It seemed like so many things were a few minutes walking or short metro trip away. It was easy to walk to the Seine, Shakespeare and Company, Notre Dame, the Louvre, and many other places. There's an art collective down the street that was fun to see, and lots of food options nearby including a monoprix in the mall where the metro stop is. While the unit itself is small, it felt like plenty of space for the two of us. Having breakfast with the windows open to the street and some mellow music playing was a favorite part of our day, and it was especially lovely when it rained. Paul is a gracious and accommodating host and I would absolutely stay again.
