I stayed at Nicole's apartment during my first trip to Paris. I could not have found a better place for a woman traveling on her own to stay. In beautiful and lively St. Germain des pres, the apartment is in walking distance of all the great parts of Paris. The Louvre, Notre Dame, and La Seine are all close by. On days when I wanted to take the Metro to different parts of town, I had access to three different subway lines, making trip planning very easy.
The neighborhood is always bustling and lively, full of friendly residents and visitors. I felt very safe and at ease. Also, St. Sulpice is at the end of the street, and proved to be not only a peaceful place to go into and relax, but a helpful landmark when navigating and planning routes.
The apartment itself is very clean and Nicole was easy to contact and always responded quickly. I highly recommend this apartment, it was instrumental in making my first trip to Paris exactly how I hoped it would be !!!!
