Location. Location. Location. A quick trip on the #12 metro, literally outside the door, to every place we wanted to go. And down Rue de Abbesses we put together the BEST first night home repast of fromage, banquette, deli and a great red wine. Also able to stock up on coffee at super marche (we are not fans of the Krup-like machine). The apartment is quaintly decorated,has a great bathroom with lots of hot water and the two floors down location must make it the coolest spot in the building. Milena greeted us warmly at the door, remained in touch and suggested restaurants and shops.
