great little apartment with timeless Parisian rooftop views. slate tile for miles!. located on a quiet street in the 2nd. well appointed kitchen with oven, generous fridge, hob, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine, 3 coffee makers, toaster, juicer, all the pots and pans one could need, dishes, knives, utensils, etc. there are stairs, but for whatever reason the way they are was not a big deal at all. just take your time. there are two different levels in the apartment that take some getting used to. I left a light on dim to help remind me in the middle of the night. 10 min to oldest patisserie, award winning baguettes, groceries, wine, restaurants, pharmacy, etc. also all the best cooking/baking shops are very very close, e. dehillerion, g. detou, a. simon, MORA. 15 min to the Marais, 25 min to st. Germain, 40 min to Montmartre. next to no tourists in the area so super quiet. maybe some Saturday night normal coming home street voices but that's about it. very clean. comfy bed and sofa bed. clean linens etc...it was a new area for me to stay and I liked it. last trip I was in the Marais, which was great but the throngs of tourists sort of lessened the experience.
