Phoenice's place has a great location. You are very near a few metro stops, and I believe bus as well - although we did not use the bus. We came in via Uber, but left via the train for the airport - again a convenient location to get to from the airport if you do not have a car. There are restaurants easily within a 5-10 minute walk, as well as pastry and coffee shops, and small grocery stores. The apartment is up only 1 flight of stairs, but there is also a small elevator - so again great if you have luggage! Phoenice was respectful of our privacy and we had plenty of space to use as well as a nice bathroom and shower. But she was right there if there was anything that we needed. My husband could only be with us the first night and had to leave back to the states for work, so he felt very comfortable leaving me and our two daughters alone in Paris knowing Phoenice was right there. The apartment worked out perfectly for our needs.
