Marite & Francois' place was a traveler's dream! The neighborhood is quiet and safe, but close to everything. We found the best coffee shop a couple of blocks away and loved the croissanteria just down the street. The apartment itself was a home away from home. It had everything you could imagine to make a pleasant stay - fully stocked kitchen, updated bathroom, comfy beds, A/C if needed (we didn't end up using it), nice living area, and on and on. The neighborhood is very walkable from most things of interest and we only used the Metro a handful of times. The windows kept any street noise at bay, but really, it was mostly quiet. Could not recommend this place more! If you're considering booking, don't hesitate and just do it! You won't be disappointed.
