Francesca and Matthieu's place has now spoiled me forever. As a book and art lover, it was heaven, perfected situated one one of the most important streets for artists in St. Germain des Près, and full of books and glorious "atelier" light from the double height windows. I loved everything about it--even the wooden and stone stairs that were worn by the passage of time and tread.
The bed was comfortable and there was a nice tub, and a fully appointed kitchen, with dishwasher, washer, and all the things you'd need. Truly a delightful and special place.
