This was the most fantastic location for us. We look forward to visiting again. Othman was there, very helpful and gave us good advice for a brilliant fish restaurant round the corner. We loved the street with its cafes and market stall, musicians playing and even people dancing as we returned (so we joined in). Earplugs were valuable as the rubbish is collected at about 5am... yes, authentic Paris experience! 3 minutes walk to an exquisite gallery in a beautiful little square among St Germain's fabulous boutiques. Print shops, second hand books, design and tiny art galleries abound. 15 min walk across the Seine to the Louvre. Highly recommended to other guests for a real taste of the best of Paris culture.
