This is a fantastic place to stay! Consider your self lucky if you can book here. Laurence-Agnes speaks good English and German. They are very thoughtful hosts. They put out a big breakfast, give you local tips, and give you privacy. The big bedroom, bathroom, mini-refridge/microwave/laundry, and toilet room are separate from the rest of apartment. The location is great - in the 1st Arrondisement, on the border with the 4th Arrondisement. 2 blocks south is the Seine River, 5 blocks southeast is Notre Dame, 5 blocks west is the Louvre.
