The apartment is convenient to all parts of Paris with it being right next to a metro stop. My boyfriend and I flew in from Charles de Gaulle Airport and it was about an hour away, but it wasn't too bad. Considering how Paris is a large city, the travel time ranged between 30-45 minutes depending on where you want to go. However, if you get a metro card, it doesn't feel like you're traveling very far. I liked the area because you are away from all the touristy areas, so you feel more like a local. Veronique was very communicative and answered any questions and concerns I had. I loved the view from her balcony!
