It was in a quiet neighbourhood but very accessible to many of Paris tourist locations. If you don't mind a little walk, which is very fun in Paris, you can walk to almost all of museum you may want to see. There are handful of bakeries and coffee shops near the house along with organic supermarket. If you stretch your leg to a bit more, you can go to farmer's market as well.
The house is well equipped with everything we need and the ceiling is super high. It was not hot at night, so you can sleep well. Enjoy the trip in Paris and stay at Sylvia's home :)
