Our two weeks in Paris was fantastic. Thorsten's compact apartment is in a superb location, with a few minutes' walk to three different metro stations (Sentier, Étienne Marcel or Réaumur Sébastopol), right smack in the heart of Montorgeuil. This is a lovely and popular pedestrian quartier bustling with sidewalk cafes, small boutiques, bakeries, ethnic delis, groceries and restaurants. However, being on a side street, the apartment is nicely quiet - we slept with the windows open to the changing sky over the rooftops of Paris.
Some of our favorite Paris museums (Louvre, Centre Pompidou, Musée des Arts et Métiers) are an easy walk away, and people wanting to venture out of town can hop on the RER at Les Halles.
We hope you get to enjoy this perfect little apartment as well. Merci énormément, Thorsten.
