We loved staying at Marianne's flat in Paris. It was described perfectly and we couldn't have asked for a more central place from which to see the city. There is so much going on in the immediate neighborhood, but you are also walking distance from so many things. And, if you need to travel further there's a metro just a couple of blocks away. Actual apartment is a old-Parisian style, perfect size with lots of windows, and contains all the modern amenities you could ask for. We would highly recommend staying in this apartment!!!
