I went to Paris to get a certification for cake design. Ms. Clara’s studio was located just across the street from the school.
For me, that was wonderful and the first plus. The location is great, lots of restaurants, markets/convenience stores (there is one just beside the lobby-entrance of the building) Metro and train station is 3 minutes walk, and the bus stop basically in front of the building entrance. Notre Dame is 1.7 miles (35 minutes walk) from Clara’s studio, so, if you don’t want to take the metro or the bus you can walk and enjoy the beauty of this city. I would recommend to do that. All Paris attractions are closed. Also the Catacombes is a block away.
The studio was the perfect size for me, and it’s a good size for 2 people to stay. Small but has everything you need. Kitchen, bathroom with shower and sink (toilet is not inside the apartment, it’s in the hallway to share, but this was not a problem and it’s something very common in Paris)
I can’t wait to go back.
