During my stay for the months of January and February of 2019 I found Didier to be an excellent host who dedicates himself to providing a positive guest experience, while being appropriately attentive. His studette has some nice touches to make the space livable for such a long stay without it 'getting old'. The location is excellent with Metro station for line 6 in immediate proximity, and another for line 10 only a five minute walk away. I used line 6 to go direct to destinations such as famous 'Avenue des Champs-Elysees'; or an excellent bakery one stop away at Pasteur called 'Des Gateauxs et du Pain', known for providing the best croissants in Paris; or my new favorite Starbucks two steps away at La Motte-Picquet where I could enjoy coffee while doing my ritual two hour morning text study session; or trying to expand my comprehension of spoken French by watching movies at 'M2 Bibliotheque' Cinema in the large open area complex known as 'Bibliotheque Nationale de Paris' that is also identified as 'Francois Mitterrand National Library'; or to connect to line 1 for a short hop to 'Musee du Louvre', and then a stroll along Avenue L'Opera to various of my favorite shops along the way to and in proximity of 'Palais Garner' of 'L'Opera National de Paris'. Line 10 is useful for visiting 'Jardin du Luxembourgh' where I crave re-experiencing the sensation it provides me, being "C'est ma petite Madeline" going back to a trip from 39 years ago. Take 10 to the 'Mabillon' stop and then it is a short walk getting there through the trendy St. Germain district, starting off on 'Boulevard Saint Germain'. You can also enjoy a pricey but famous cafe 'Les Deux Magots'.
This has been my fifth trip and so I've seen most of the well known Parisian attractions multiple times, so for me this trip was to serve another purpose of familiarization. The reader may or may not identify with this goal. Didier provides some ideas for visiting attractions if interested; and of course all one has to do is a web search of 'things to do in Paris'.
Not to forget a review of the basics, all were excellent: availability of heat, hot running water, elevator, security keycode entries (2), adequate quietude, general building cleanliness. The building interior halls were about to be repainted as my trip was ending.
I highly recommend Didier's studette for its high value as an economical stay location in an excellent neighborhood surrounded by many of Paris's best attractions, and for the excellent host attentiveness that is in an appropriate degree.
