Numa's place is in an absolutely idyllic location in Paris. We adored the open air market that took place 3x per week just steps from the apartment. The Place de la Contrescarpe just a few blocks away is a great place to grab a casual drink in the day or go out at night. There are several delicious patisseries within a 5min walk. Whether you want a casual bite or a Michelin star dinner, there are great restaurant options within a short walking distance. And the nearby Jardin de Plantes is a lovely place to spend an afternoon. If you want to leave the neighborhood, there are two convenient metro stops nearby, so traveling around Paris is easy. Numa is super communicative and responsive both leading up to and during our stay. She was extremely flexible and accommodating with both check in and check out, which we really appreciated. And her neighbor is incredibly sweet. However, there is one important thing to note about Numa's place. Please be aware of the conditions when visiting in the summer. It was quite hot during our stay with daytime temperatures 80-90 degrees F and nighttime temperatures as high as 75 degrees F. Being on the 6th floor, the apartment can get very warm and there is only 1 very small fan. The first night, we tried leaving the windows open to sleep, but the noise was worse than the heat - cars, people, and the garbage and recycling trucks in the morning. We were able to buy earplugs at the pharmacy just steps from the apartment, which helped, but overall, negotiating the temperature and noise made it very hard to get a good nights sleep with the summertime heat.
