I was in Paris for a few days looking for a place near everything but outside the normal tourist tumult. Charlotte's apartment was a perfect choice. Charlotte is a gracious host and her apartment is located on the top floor of an elevator building. This apartment offers a delightful urban oasis. The decor is sophisticated yet comfortable. The neighborhood is close in to the city center but much quieter than the typical tourist areas. The amenities in the apartment are complete, perfect for one person or a couple; a comfortable stay has been well considered. The neighborhood itself is perfect. There are restaurants, groceries, a wine store, and a butcher all within two blocks. The metro is near, and an Uber ride is just minutes away. The private rooftop patio with a view of the Eiffel Tower is quintessential Paris. If you are interested in modern architecture, then you are in for a special treat. The building was designed by the office of Robert Mallet-Stevens, one of Paris' first modern architects, and is on rue Mallet-Stevens, a street with several buildings by this pioneer architect, including his own home. If you want to enjoy Paris from a refined perch, this is the right place.
