Staying at Marie's lovely apartment was beyond exceptional. Its very clean and everything is accessible from her house. The metro is a 5 minute walk away (at most) and there are tons of café all around. I had a great time there and Marie went above and beyond to help me out with whatever questions I had. She even provided her friends' phone numbers if I couldn't get a hold of her. I wished I had the opportunity to have met her, but she was on vacation. She left well detailed instructions on how to get the front door key and the buzzer codes . Overall, I had a great time in Paris and a great place to stay
