The location is perfect if you want to experience the main sites of Paris. Julia's place is a short walk to Champs Elysée, Arc de Triomphe, Seine River, shops and excellent restaurants, boat tours, bus stops, taxi stops, and Metro -- so you can get anywhere from here. As my French cousin told me, this is a chic part of town! We felt comfortable walking back late in the night and the entry into the place is quite secure. Only drawbacks are that this one room is quite small, bed is a double, and there's no view from this studio apartment--and otherwise it worked out very well! Thanks Julia!
