This place was perfect: Modern and quaint. I loved the use of space. It's right in the center of the action. Easy access to Notre Dame, Sainte-Chapelle and the Metro which lends direct access to Gate du Nord where we caught the bullet train to London. There are countless cafes and restaurants all within short walking distance. There is also a grocery store (Franprix) a couple blocks away where you can get EVERYTHING you need including fresh squeezed orange juice. We got our breakfast food, wines, cheese etc. from there. Also in the area is a farmers market open daily.
The only negative is having to walk up 70 steps to get to the flat which is on the 4th floor. For us, while we did not enjoy having to walk up all the stairs, we had a great time laughing at our struggle to carry things up. Fortunately, we hired a car to bring us to and from the airport and they took care of taking our bags up and down the stairs.
I will definitely stay here again!
Thanks again Jean for your wonderful hospitality. I am looking forward to my next trip!
