Lucile's place was only 15 minutes walking from the venue wheer I attended a conference for a week. I enjoyed my own island of quietness. In the evenings the apartment is extremely quiet for a good night sleep. There are different supermarkets such as Carrefour, Picard and so on within 3 minutes of walking. What is nice about Lucile's apartment that it is at the edge of hip and happening part of Paris (Rue Ramey) and the more multicultural, vibrant African part of the town.
