Fanny's apt is in the perfect location for anyone seeking a hip, Parisian experience with multiple great modern food and coffee places nearby. Several high end grocery stores and the metro is just two blocks away. Near the Seine, Notre Dame Cathedral, and Center Pompidou. Additionally, I signed up at Hubsy, a co-working space that is very close and used that as my office. The apt is quiet and perfect for French lessons which I took at the table in the kitchen. Sometimes people are working on the building and there is a little noise but it's just for a few minutes. The building was built in 1750 [I read online] so this requires a little bit of upkeep and it's been taken amazing care of. The apt is very beautiful, clean and the bed is very comfortable. One note: the door will lock when you shut it, automatically. So be sure you have the keys with you or that you memorize the building codes/put them in your phone. In the US we don't have this but in Europe they do. Thanks, Franny!
