We had an excellent time, using Hugues' apartment to explore central Paris. It is conveniently located about 500m from the Bastille Metro station (Lines 1 and 8) or about 450m from the Voltaire Metro station (line 9). Within 50 meters of the exit at street level one can find a Carrefour for grocery shopping and plenty of bars and restaurants. The flat is nice and quiet. Check-in was easy, with Hugues there to meet us. Will definitely use it again for any future visits.
