I enjoyed my stay with Maguy so much! First of all, there are so many practical amenities; I felt like I was home. There a Lot off hangers. It was probably the first time ever traveling that I could hang up all my clothes, and four drawers as well. There was a power strip by the bed—just like at home— for all my charging. The powerful fan made the heat wave bearable for sleeping. It was nice to have the TV in the room, although I only watched one movie. The bedroom window looks out onto a very busy area, and of course there is noise, but with the double-pane-windows shut, i had no problem sleeping. There were several Metro stations nearby, and the 75 bus goes down to Centre Pompidou and Les Halles area. There are many, many restaurants and cafes nearby, and it is very pleasant to stop for ice-cream along the St Martin Quai. But the best amenity is Maguy herself. Although she doesn’t speak English, she is really skilled at Google translate. Breakfast was lively, with fresh croissant, good bread, home-made jams and even a freshly baked fruit tarte. She was helpful giving directions and practical advice for navigating Paris. She really cares for her guests. I sincerely hope I can visit her again.
