This is a wonderful, spacious (for Paris) apartment with a great location in the middle of the city - literally on the border between the 14th and 6th arrondisements with easy access to metro, bus lines, the RER-B (airport), and the Gare de Montparnasse and also within easy walking distance of some of Paris' best features, such as the Luxembourg Gardens, the St Germain-de-pres neighborhood, St. Sulpice, the Latin Quarter - even Notre Dame is only a 25-30 minute stroll. Jacques is a fantastic host - very friendly, helpful, and responsive - and provides his guests with true hospitality. The neighborhood itself has numerous grocery stores, restaurants and cafes, boulangeries, and other amenities nearby - very convenient. The apartment is along a major thoroughfare, so if you are not used to the sounds of city life it might be a bit noisy but it was not a problem for us. We would be very happy to stay here again if we should get the opportunity.
