The location is simply the best in Paris - a clean and lively neighborhood with the Odeon Metro stop (#4 and #10) and Bus stop (#70, #63, #72, #86, #87, #58), less than two blocks away, just a 5 to 10 minute walk to dozens of excellent eat-in and take-out restaurants of every ethnic and foodie description and cost, famous and should be famous sidewalk cafes, a lively and very friendly and very mixed bar scene includes two raucus multi-screen sports bars, a language school, an art school, supermarket, fruit and veggie market, scores of great bookstores, and shops and art galleries galore. Surprisingly, it takes just minutes to walk to many of the best sights in Paris - Musée du Louvre, Jardin des Tuileries, Musée D'Orsay, Notre Dame, Panthéon, Jardin du Luxembourg, Saint Sulpice (great organ) Pont des Arts (Lover's bridge), Pont Neuf, Bateau Mouche dock on the Seine, etc.... Everything anyone could want is literally right out the front door and every walk in any direction is a memorable experience.
The apartment has a comfortably furnished living room with floor to ceiling windows, an adjacent dining area, complete open kitchen with pass-through bar, quiet bedroom with a very comfortable bed (seems like queen size) and good storage, and a full bath. I liked the fact that the apartment has excellent cross-ventilation and those floor to ceiling dual-glazed windows.
Four Velib bicycle stations (free with a $29 membership) within two blocks and the Rue de Buci pedestrian street is just around the corner with street musicians and show-off athletes, every night.
Catherine is a warm and knowledgeable host who speaks perfect English and is an encyclopedia of information about the neighborhood, Paris, and the world. If Catherine will forgive me for overstaying, I will be back!!!!! Hugs and kisses. Gary
