Claude's place is a very nice room in an excellent location. In the middle of the Marais but so quiet! In the neighborhood lots of places to eat and drink and also a couple of supermarkets. The nearest metro 10/15 minutes walk. A real home away from home with a nice little terrace. The beds are nice, the lavender color on the walls relaxing and there is information about Paris in a couple of books. It is on the 5th floor but luckily with elevator (very nice for my mother of 82). We would certainly recommend this place.
