This is the perfect place to experience life in the Latin quarter of Paris. You are close to so much, five minutes to the Pantheon and the exquisite St. Etienne du Mont Church, fifteen to Notre Dame, but it seems like there were no tourists on this street. All the neighborhood is lined with tiny shops, bakeries, restaurants and cafes. Anne Marie will tell you where to find the bakeries and supermarkets, and what days the little square nearby has an outdoor market (several times a week.) The only drawback to the area is that with all this life going on in the streets it is pretty loud into the wee hours. I wore earplugs and closed the window for sleeping.
Anne Marie is also a lovely experience of Paris. Her home is comfortable, the kitchen equipped with all I needed, and the interned was fast enough. Anne is comfortable, generous, and will always have a smile for you. She even baked a delicious rhubarb torte to share with me.
We had fun trying to converse in my tiny French and her small English. It all worked out fine.
