Laurence's place is very nice and in a perfect area. A two minute walk to the Metro, Jardin des Plantes, & Grande Mosquee. Hemingway's area is two blocks away. An ancient Roman arena is just around the corner - really! The Pantheon and the Luxembourg Gardens are about 10 minutes away and the Seine is less than 15 minutes. At check-in Laurance was there to meet us and explained the ins and outs. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. This is one of the nicest Airbnb places I've stayed at. Parfait!
