This was my 3rd visit to Paris, previously having stayed in an apartment and then an hotel in the Latin quarter, but this apartment was by far the best place I have stayed in. The apartment is located in a secure, quiet building and is quite spacious, with everything you could need during your stay. The location is fantastic, could not be beaten! Close to cafes, restaurants, shopping and easy walking distance to many of Paris most famous attractions. However, if you do need to visit somewhere further away, you are literally surrounded by easy options to get you there with a minimum of hassle, with bus, metro and train stops all within a 5 minute walk. The neighbourhood itself feels very safe (something that was very important to me as a solo female traveller) and I had no problems wandering the surrounding streets day or night (which I highly recommend, you never know what you'll find). All of the above would be enough to highly recommend this particular apartment but on top of this there's the charming and thoughtful hostess, Claudine. She took the time to greet me and have a little chat, to see if there was anything she could assist me with. She was flexible regarding check-in/check-out times and very kindly allowed me to leave my bags with her until late on my last day, which made for a far more enjoyable 1st and last day experience. If you want to feel like you are LIVING in Paris and not just visiting, this is the place to stay.
