Where do I begin?? This is truly the perfect Paris apartment.
1 Working with Sandra and Monique was so easy. Monique met us at the apartment and showed us around and was so welcoming. Perhaps we just got lucky but the next occupants weren't coming until the next day so we were able to take a lovely nap in the afternoon and of the last day in Sandra's beautiful place before we left.
2. The location is perfection if you like like the Boulevard St. Germain and it's environs..or even if you don't, it is very close to multiple metro stations on multiple lines that will take you anywhere you want to go. There is a Monoprix about 1 block away and the street Market for vegetables and fish and meat and beautiful objects is on the Boulevard Raspail which is a relatively short walk from the apartment. Also the Marche St Germain is right around the corner. Needless to say, easy walk to the Seine, Notre Dame, Louvre, etc, etc.
3. The apartment is absolutely gorgeous. I know you can see from the pictures but it really is even bigger than it looks which is CRAZY for Paris. Despite being on a real street it is very very quiet in the apartment. The living room windows give out onto the street but the kitchen and bedroom windows give out onto the courtyard and we left them open for the fresh air at night and slept like babies. The kitchen is very well equipped and has a stock of staples like oil and vinegar and salt and pepper that just makes life so much easier if you like to shop at the market and cook at home every once in a while. We had perfect breakfasts every morning with the spoils of the Boulanger/Patissier and some coffee and juice gathered around that kitchen table. I highly recommend Sandras place to anyone.
