Mum and son bunked in together on the settee for 8 days of a great stay in Paris. We loved staying on the island. It is an oasis in the busy-ness of Paris. The studio is very efficient to live in with everything at your fingertips.The kitchen is very easy to use and supplies are shared from other stayers and the owners in good trust. There is an excellent bar up the corner for happy hour to watch the folks sashay from the Marais to the Latin behind Notre Dame. The boulangerie, wine shop, butcher and co are steps away and the local restaurants are quite ok too. Highly recommended to stay here and I hope to be back!
