Marine's place is very well located. A 30-45 minute walk or a short metro ride from most of the major sites to see. There are two metro stations within a few blocks of the apartment and plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. There is a Monoprix (grocery) within 3-4 blocks as well as a Sunday farmer's market and several convenience shops in the neighborhood. Marine's place gets amazing sunlight and was cozy, comfortable, and equipped with all the essentials. It is a 6-floor walk-up; it's not a good place for those with disabilities or physical limitations, but we didn't mind the extra exercise. Marine's place has a nice stove-top espresso maker but if you prefer to make a whole pot, I would bring a pour over or a press. Overall, a great place for a great value!
