It was such a privilege to stay in this apartment during our Paris vacation. It was absolutely lovely, very conveniently located and quite comfortable.

Suzel welcomed us warmly with refreshments, a tour, and detailed advice about local cafes, patisseries, boucheries, etc. She also provided a Paris map book and Metro map that were our constant companions.

The apartment is filled with natural light from large windows, but there are awesome exterior shutters you can close at night to make the rooms dark and quiet. The master bedroom has double windows and black-out curtains that make it especially dark and quiet - so good for sleep! Plenty of heat from radiators, nice lighting, well appointed kitchen, and a great bathroom (rain+hand shower, no tub, separate toilette room). Having separate bedrooms for our two teen kids seemed luxurious - so much space for an urban apartment! All the beds were comfortable with warm duvets.

As wonderful as the apartment itself is, the thing we appreciated most of all was the location. Suzel's apartment is two short blocks from Rue Montorgeuil - an absolutely superb foodie street. It's a locals' street - chocolateries, patisseries/boulangeries, boucheries, grocery stores (including natural one), florists, fromageries...it's amazing. A metro stop is just outside the door, an RER stop to the airport is close by, and Notre Dame, Le Louvre and the Marais are short walks away.

Parfait!
