I am French living in the US, I am a Parisian born so I know the city well. Sophie’s place is ideally located, the batignolles is one of my favorite areas, the real Paris is there. You are close to the subways (Rome/Villiers/Saint lazare), bakeries all over, Monoprix (a grocery store that puts Whole Foods to shame) markets, you can even walk to Pigalle!
There are restaurants, bars,around, without being too overwhelming! The place is Q.U.I.E.T!
The place is more than enough for 2 people, it has everything for your stay from washer, good kitchen, and the decoration is neat!
Sophie was a great host, very dependable, kind and warm. I strongly recommend this place!
