My stay at Elsa's place was great! She accommodated me and my dog while we were in between apartments. I even had to extend my stay for 2 weeks and she was very gracious by allowing me to remain there. The street is quiet yet 2/3 blocks away yet there are many nice restaurants and bars. You can walk to the Bastille monument in 10 minutes. The apartment is comfortable and has a beautiful view to the street . Even the walk up the stairs is 5 flights, it was worth it as my legs are stronger for it. It was a nice experience staying in a beautiful Parisian apartment.
