The apartment is located in one of the great arrondissements of Paris, the 5th. Near the Pantheon, Sorbonne, Luxembourg gardens. Etc. With several quick markets near, one Supérette right in front of the apartment that stayed open late. Boulangeries to the left and right. Walking distance to Jardin des Plantes, and Rue Mouffetard. The place is spacious, big enough for two people, clean, with two bathrooms and a nice well equipped kitchen. Also, a working elevator that fits two people.
Gilda, the owner, was there to meet us at arrival. She was friendly and helpful.
This was not my first trip to Paris but I have never used the bus service before, only the metro. There are two main lines 21 and 27 stopping right outside the building. This is a great asset after you have walked everywhere in Paris and you just want to come home without walking anymore. RER line at Metro Luxembourg is very convenient too. At 5-7 minutes’ walk away from the house if you want to come or go to CDG, Gare du Nord, etc.
The apartment accommodated two teenagers and my husband and I. It is a safe neighborhood, people walked very late at night. Several restaurants nearby and one with the best pizzas I have ever eaten, Arrivederci, just downstairs on 47 Gay Lussac.
Highly recommended, I will love to stay here again.
