My wife and I stayed for three nights at Suzette's studio apartment over a long weekend. We loved the location of the apartment, on a very charming street, only a few blocks from the "Place d'Italie" metro stop that is the junction for three metro lines. Plenty of restaurants in the vicinity, including on the same block one of Paris' best Thai restaurants, nearby many Chinese, Vietnamese, and other Asian cuisines, and, of course, French restaurants too. There's a great boulangerie (bakery) on the corner, and very close is a retail center that includes a Carrefour supermarket.

Suzette was a very helpful host, giving us easy to follow directions to find the apartment from arrival at CDG airport and using the Metro. She had a bottle of wine and a baguette and croissants waiting for us at the apartment, and there was coffee, butter, jam, etc. in the refrigerator. She also has travel guides, maps, and assorted books in the bookshelf. The studio is compact, on the first floor of its building. The apartment was clean and nicely decorated.
