The location was great! It was probably a 20 minute ride from the center of Paris (Chatalet train station) on the metro. The metro it self is reliable and comes every few minutes. Right out of the train station you have about three bakeries, super market and McDonald's. The apartment is only two blocks away from the station and also on the same block as a beautiful park over looking central Paris and the Eiffel Tower. The apartment was on the second floor since in France they count the floors from 0. Huge windows, high ceilings, hardwood floors and a nice big bath tub! The apartment was clean, spacious and perfect for a mother daughter trip to France! Thank you so much Anna!
