Marion's apartment is in a great location and was perfect for the two of us. It had everything we needed to make ourselves comfortable. We were in Paris during the heat wave (104F), and being on the 7th floor (there is an elevator), it was very warm, even at night, but nobody can control the weather. There is a great bakery down the street that we visited every morning for fresh croissants and a great baguette for dinner. The huge park just minutes away is a great place to watch people rowing a boat, swans, geese, people jogging, or hanging out on the grass. The Paris Zoo was a great experience. Definitely a must while on that side of town. There is a fairly huge market on Sunday mornings and the metro is just steps away from the front door. Marion always responded within minutes.
