I would absolutely recommend this lovely home for your stay in Paris! You have the best of both worlds: With recent upgrades everything is clean and attractive. Yet, the building and neighborhood has an ancient, authentic, romantic feel to it that is so enchanting. Be sure to visit the Luxembourg park which is right down the street as well as a few local cafes. Louise is a great hostess. Very easy to communicate with and quick to respond. The bed is comfortable. It is a loft though, so it would be difficult for someone elderly or physically disabled to get up and down. And it would be dangerous for little children. But, It happened to be one of our favorite parts. There are 5 flights of stairs. So we felt good being able to work off the delicious food that we ate. The location is great. A very close metro trip to all the favorite tourist stops. Enjoy!
