This apartment is the best one I have stayed at, at the best neighborhood and for the best cost for a one-month stay! I have been doing this for 6 summers and was a graduate student in Paris many years ago so I am quite familiar with the city. This apartment is so close to the RER-metro station (Port Royal) and Luxembourg Gardens and is a quiet, mostly residential neighborhood. The 3 French bakeries nearby, the mini supermarket Auchan around the block and a block away from Hemingway’s preferred Closerie des Lilas! This place is a true GEM!
