I had an event at the Paris Expo which made this an ideal location. (10 min walk.) I have been to Paris before but never stayed in the 15th arr. There are a couple grocery stores nearby. Le Murmure was a great restaurant to check out, great people watching! This is also close to 3 metro stops, depending on which line you need. (Lourmel for M-8 and Port de versailles for M line 12). If you are in the neighborhood on a Saturday, they have a wonderful market with all sort of fresh produce and prepared foods. (On Rue Lecourbe heading towards Blvd Victor.) Edgar's place had all the amenities and his bed was so comfortable! We had a question about where to empty the garbage and someone came right over to take care of it! Edgar really cares about his patrons and you won't regret staying here!
