My sister and I stayed here for a glorious week in Paris. The location is absolutely perfect. You can walk almost everywhere and the metro is super close. Good restaurants and cafes in the area as well as numerous grocery stores that enable you to get the necessities for breakfast and coffee at home. Melissa is an exceptional host who provides some really good local tips. It’s really clean and has good WiFi. Just some touristy notes: totally do not recommend the Asian restaurant down the street from the apartment, beef bourgnion at Le Lutece on boulevard St Michel is delicious, for Americans- tip is included in all restaurant checks, great shopping in the Marais (3rd arr), the Catacombs is totally not worth the cost, be sure to visit Ste. Chapelle and Luxembourg gardens- no matter the time of year both are magnificent. When I go back- totally will be staying here again. If you find yourself stranded with no place to stay because your flight was canceled, like we did, the Suez Hotel on blvd St Michel around the corner is great and affordable.
