Lisa was a delightful hostess. She answered questions, made phone calls for me and was generally helpful. She even bought a fan for my room (I had asked about air conditioning before I came and the apartment, like most in Paris, has no air conditioning).

The room was spacious and looked out onto a very busy, touristy street. This proved to be quite entertaining and I enjoyed sitting beside the open window listening to the sounds of the city and, especially, the periodic ringing of the bells of Notre Dame. The double-paned window was capable of blocking out the noise when needed.

The location of this residence is superb! Walk left and you were on the Left Bank and the Latin Quarter area. Walk right and you find Pompidou Center and the Marais neighborhood. And, of course, it's a 2 minute walk to Notre Dame!

All in all, I was thrilled to have spent my days in Paris with Lisa!
