My son and I were in Paris to work on a project together. Our welcome to the apartment was seamless and very easy. The apartment was clean and had everything we needed - a simple kitchen, a space that served as our common space and my son's sleeping space, and a lovely loft style bedroom which was very comfortable. The neighborhood is quiet but close by subway to most everything - Place de Victor Hugo and other streets also provide lovely places to enjoy Paris without the throngs. Thanks so much!
