Location, location, location!! Shawn's apartment has the best location. You could not ask for a better place. Just a block off the Tulleries metro stop, it made it so easy to navigate Paris. It has everything you need close by, and the little market across the street made it handy to run out and get fresh bread every morning. The apartment was more then enough room for 2 people (1 slept on the bed, the other on the fold out sofa), the bathroom with the rain shower was incredible. Kitchen had pretty much everything you needed We eat breakfast there in the morning (some cooked, some cold) and after a long day in the city we could do a light meal before bed there. He also left a little assortment of food, coffee and drinks which was a very nice tough. I would highly recommend his apartment!
