This stay is in a perfect location if you want a taste of what it's really like to live in Paris. There are plenty of grocery stores, cafes, and restaurants in the neighborhood. Several buses will take you to all the places to visit, and the metro is near enough for a quick walk. Gabriella's place has everything you could want. The kitchen is so well-stocked, you really could cook a full meal with no trouble. Plenty of storage for your belongings, and although the street is busy, the apt. is very quiet. This is a fabulous stay!
