Alexandra and her family were lovely hosts for our short but sweet 2 day stay in Paris. Central with many great restaurants and boutiques. Close to all that is going on which means of course there is some noise from the street but it never bothered us personally. Would not recommend bringing a heavy suitcase as you will have to haul it up a couple flights of stairs ;) Room is as described—cosy, so at times not a lot of room to move especially if you have luggage and are sharing with another, but it's all that you need and if you're doing Paris right, you won't be spending much time with it anyway other than to sleep! Thanks again Alex!
