I stayed here with my husband and baby (13months old) for about two weeks. The studio is located in a great neighborhood. Bakery, butcher's shop n street full of commercial stuff a few steps away. The local butcher has some good chipolata sausages for breakfast! And a really nice gratin with chicken for the times you won't be able cook. 3 grocery stores round the corner too. Bus 58 and bus 28 stops are also a walking distance, and the bus 58 takes you directly to Chatelet where you can shop (Chatelet is the one good shopping area with Forever 21, Zara, Mango, Footlocker, etc.) but also get a connection to other places like The Louvre etc. The Metro is also a direct line to champs elysees. Studio was cool, maybe because I cook a lot and the baby's sake, not enough pots and pans. But if it's for a couple it's enough. The microwave is also an oven. The only thing I could comment on was the tv stations, only a few local channels so if you're a family that doesn't speak French, it would be difficult to find something to do in the evenings if it has to do with TV. Otherwise our stay was nice, we enjoyed the area. Her bathroom is very neat and nice. And washing machine is big enough! Marie was also professional and friendly in replying to my messages. Thanks Marie and I would definitely come and stay again if ever we are in Paris.
