A clean, comfortable sunny apartment with a nice view. I saw the spring "super moon" over the Eiffel tower before it disappeared early in the morning. The kitchen was properly equipped to cook decent meals. The bath was clean, with multiple towels for the stay. Water pressure was not as strong due to the apartment being on the top floor. The bed was comfortable, clean sheets, and basic pillows. I was not able to meet the host as they were traveling, but there was really good communication.
Staying in the 11th arr was a good idea. Not crowded, not touristy, not loud and dirty. There is access to 3 metros about 10 minutes walk. For late night restaurants and wine bars, the nearby Rue Saint Maur. I choose to cook at night buying high quality ingredients from various places. As I don't live here, and want to make the most out of Paris, I choose to locate the best boulangeries, and boucheries. for vegetables, there's many farmers markets, as well as the local Biocoop store where high quality butter can be found. I recommend La Maison d'Isabelle for amazing quality, and flavorful organic bread, and croissants. Farine&O has really good sandwiches made with Roman style flat bread instead of a mini baguette. I stumbled upon the Rue de Levis one day and it was amazing, a street jam packed with food shopping.
