We have a lovely stay at Honorine's chic Paris apartment. It's evident that she takes great care as hostess - she is on top of all thing and provides you with everything you need.The metro is a couple mins away which is handy considering you won't be in the downtown core. All in all I would recommend Honorine's Paris haven. And regarding those stairs: they are quite legnthy, but you could use some exercise after all the baguettes and crepes you will be eating :)
