Staying at Sophie's place was a treat. The location is perfect - I love the local/neighbourhood vibes but it's also surrounded by great cafes, restaurants and plenty of shops. There's also a park with a stream that allows you to sit in peace and quiet. Sophie's building is easily walkable from two metro stops and quite a few bus stops. But if you like walking, it's also within walkable distance of Montmartre, Arc de Triomphe and also the Seine (a longer walk). The apartment itself is very cosy, the bed very comfortable, and Sophie is extremely warm and welcoming. Sophie and her daughters took care of me and made me feel very comfortable throughout my trip in Paris; they also let you be if you need your own time. I could also use the kitchen and Sophie even made some room for my things in her fridge. It's the best accommodation I could have hoped for during my 6 days in the city.
