My daughter and I truly enjoyed staying in Paris at Jean-Jacques's little flat. It was our first time in Europe. The home is very very small but adequate with a private bathroom/shower and the kitchen had a small fridge, toaster-oven, microwave, sink and a Nespresso coffee-maker. Lovely to find Nespresso compatible coffee at the Fran-prix supermarket just a few shops down the street of boulevard de-grenelle. And a great price too at only $3,45 euro per box of ten. The little elevator up to the 6th floor was the cutest I'd ever seen. Then the little circular flight up to the 7th floor. LOVED the view of the top of the Eiffel Tower from the window! You can see it all lit up at night and flashing like a jewel on the hour for five minutes at 10:00, 11:00, 12:00 and 1:00am - then all the lights go off. No air-conditioning so keep that in mind when you book. Hot days in Paris equals very hot flat! There is a fan and you can place it on the little dining table right at your faces if you sleep with your feet to the wall. And take cool showers to keep cool. And if you are still too hot, drink a little wine before bed and you'll go right to sleep. There is a hair-dryer available but bring an adapter for your American appliances that need plugged in. Finally, make sure you enjoy the bridge across the Seine just steps from your stay. It's the one where "Inception" was filmed and it has a lot of history. Beautiful views of the Eiffel. The Fran-Prix supermarket has a delicious hot meal of two rotisserie leg quarters along with yummy carrots and potatoes for only $3,90 euro and grab a fresh baguette for .58 euro and some fresh fruit. Very cheap hot meal to enjoy after a long day of sight-seeing. And definitely go see the Basilica De Sacre Couer!! It's in the Montmarte area and the views are amazing! Souvenirs are actually a little cheaper there too! Enjoy the winding roads and see where Van Gogh lived. Afterwards, one can walk down to the Moulin-Rouge and from there, a forty minute walk to the Arc-de-Triomphe. There are no washcloths available so we bought a scrubby at the Fran-Prix. And only two towels for the whole week. The restaurant Subway is just outside so you can enjoy an American sub if you need to. We did that the first day we arrived because we were so tired and hungry and didn't want the stress of initially trying to order food at a cafe. I would totally stay at Jean-Jacques place again! It was fun to live like the average Parisian while there!
