We have had a great 5-day stay at Pat´s little villa in Paris. The villa has 3 storeys and lies in the inner yard of a huge triangled apartment block - however it is the only backyard you have access to under this entrance and there is no connection to any other backyard. The villa is very nicely and a bit enchantedly decorated thus it rather looks like a house in the country than in the middle of Paris. Obviously Pat and her family live there outside the holiday season which makes it lively place. So if you are after the coolness of a hotel or are an Art Deco fan, just stay away from it. The only (if any) downer is that the high surrounding building block is keeping the sun from shining down to the villa - at least in late August when we were there. But since it has been really hot in Paris back then the shade didn´t really hurt - and in Paris you are supposed to be outside anyways so why bother. It is also a very quiete place, even though there was heavy construction work on the street right before the block, we have not heard much of it. Bottom line, we will be back (hopefully).
