Lorraine's place is great. It's on a bustling street but set back enough that the apartment is silent with the windows closed. We came during a heat wave, but even with the windows closed the apartment was relatively cool! The space is artfully decorated, super chic, and interesting. Lorraine is a very thoughtful host who not only greeted us with a bottle of wine in the fridge, but also emailed us recommendations of places to eat (which we tried and were excellent). The apartment is also conveniently located between two metro stops (Blanche and Pigalle) so we were able to take the metro everywhere easily. If you're looking for an affordable, convenient, comfortable, and unique spot I highly recommend staying here.
