We loved staying at Genia's apartment. It was very clean, quiet at night, and had everything we needed. It was in a building with lots of atmosphere, big windows with lots of light and plenty of space. It is in the heart of the Bastille/Rue Antoine district, with many good restaurants, charming cafes, unique boutiques, a supermarket, and street markets right around the corner. It was a two-block walk to two Metro stations, making it a very convenient base for exploring Paris. Genia was available and extremely helpful when we did have questions, stopping by the apartment when we were stuck figuring out how the appliances worked. We had a wonderful time!
