Great place, great host and great location. Loved Marie's little studio in the heart of the Quartier latin - a very vibrant neighborhood. Would highly recommend it. Although it's on the 4th floor and we were there during the heat wave - the fans did the job and we stayed relatively cool! On our arrival - Marie's daughter greeted us on the street as we were a little lost - that was a very thoughtful touch we greatly appreciated. The window of the studio is located in the inner court which made the studio very quiet. The studio was supplied with everything an international traveller needs. Very comfortable sofa bed. Easy access to public transportation as well - the metro and RER are only steps away. Don't miss the massive dance parties on Saturday evenings on the Seine near the opposite side of Notre Dame cathedral - for all ages and all dance styles! Would definitely return to this studio - thank you Marie
