Great location, close to transit, the Seine and sights. We had to defer our trip from March to October, and Francoise was very accommodating in making the change. It's a wonderful three-room apartment in a renovated attic space, decorated in a marvelous blend of old and new. Large traditional windows let in lots of light, and the heating system was efficient and responsive. Lots of closet and dresser space, plenty of hangers. Well-equipped kitchen was perfect for making hearty breakfasts and late-night snacks. (Gas stove needs to be lit with a match). Lots of kitchen gadgets and a drawerful of extension cords and other necessities. Three rooms with doors made it easy for late and early risers to co-exist. Be prepared for two-and-half flights of narrow but picturesque stairs. It's on a back street with little traffic. It's generally quiet except for a schoolyard of frenetic middle-school kids on some school days, and occasional groups of late-night inebriates making their cheerful way home. There are pricey and affordable restaurants, shops and galleries , post office, bakeries, grocery, and lots of transit within walking distance. It would have been nice to have a guide/map. However, we had ten days to figure out the neighborhood. We loved the apartment and want to return for a longer stay.
