You have got to stay here when in Paris! Host is almost as good as a tour guide with excellent walking tours she has written up and she can help plan your itinerary. Samia is so helpful in every possible way. Five minute walk from two Metro stations and downtown bus. Lots of shops and restaurants in the immediate neighborhood. Very secure and quiet building. Samia provides a delicious continental breakfast lunch very morning. My only comment is that I wish the bed had been a little softer. Nice bedroom windows offers fresh air.
