My wife and I really enjoyed staying in David and Sophie's home. It was special to stay in a real home and not a "vacation place." They have books, unusual and arresting posters and prints on the walls and every kind of kitchen device we could have wanted (although we didn't cook). We did have breakfasts and some snacks with food we purchased at neighborhood bakeries and grocery stores. The location was wonderful. It's close to everything but it is not in a tourist district. We enjoyed the neighborhood cafes and stores. We especially enjoyed the cafe a block away, Royal Beaubourg.
