Ray's place at 10 Rue Nicholas Flamel is the best! It's a little small, but that's the norm for Paris. The 11 ft. ceilings help to make it feel larger. The large windows let in a lot of light or the nice curtains block it out, your choice. The restaurant scene is lively every night, but the tight windows almost completely block it out. The location is VERY convenient. It's a 10-15 min walk from The Chatelet-Halles train station when you're first arriving. There are at least 2 Metro (subway) Lines nearby, plus bus routes. Be sure to get maps for both when you're buying your train ticket at the airport. Ray keeps the place very clean and well appointed, plus he lives in the building and is very helpful when needed. You'll have a great time in Paris at Ray's place.
