A wonderful way to immerse yourself in the Latin Quarter. Michel had created a wonderful nest to set up for a great visit. While the stairs are a challenge to climb — especially if you have many suitcases or bottles of wine — the vantage from the top is great. You are cut off from the noise of the local bars and restaurants but can still look out on the life.
Easy easy easy access to the Metro. You are steps from Notre Dame and the wonderful Shakespeare and Co bookstore.
Michel was EXTREMELY attentive to our needs and in constant contact with us before, during and after.
My only caution is that it can get very warm during the summer months. There is an air conditioner unit, but it is mobile — so don't expect immediate cool down. Being a very warm-natured person and spending out days walking we would get quite hot. Plus, being an American, I have become accustomed to central air. However, the mobile air unit does do its job and we were extremely comfortable once it had time to do so. I only mention this to help set expectations for fellow travelers. By no means should you let that dissuade you from booking.
I would stay here again and again and again. Thank you, Michel for the opportunity!
