Edith's place is fantastic! The home itself is very clean, spacious, and has plenty of drawers & closet space to unpack and feel "at home." It's worth mentioning that the shower is awesome! The kitchen has all the necessary pots and pans to make cooking (and saving money) easy. The grocery store is around the corner! The apartment is on the ground floor, but the neighborhood is safe and quiet. There are a wide variety of restaurants within a few blocks of the place. Most our dinners we ate at restaurants in the neighborhood! There's a bakery on the corner...you can watch them making baguettes when you walk by. Edith's restaurant, Le Coin, is about 2 blocks away from the apartment. We weren't able to call her for check-in, which we were nervous about, but we just walked to Le Coin (it was lunch hour) and she was there and someone let us into the apartment. We got to chat with her a little too and she is sweet, friendly, and so welcoming! As for the Metro, there's two different stops about 5 minutes walking distance from the apartment (2 and 3 line). It's a very quick walk to the Saint-Lazarre train station as well. We were extremely happy with our stay!
