  Not only was this apartment everything as described on this site, the location could not have been more perfect! Though it is located directly on Blvd. St. Germain and above a cafe, it is extremely quiet with the windows closed. I slept quite easily and comfortably. I found the studio to be very clean, quiet, bright, warm, cozy and comfortable and containing everything needed for an ideal trip. The bed is very comfortable, as are the down pillows, and the room warmed quickly when I turned on the heat. (It was cold and rainy throughout my trip.) There is a 2-burner stove, a microwave, a refrigerator, washer, towel warmer, plenty of storage and hangers, etc. The apartment has a tv, but who travels to Paris to watch tv? Much appreciated was the super fast Wi-Fi and free phone calls to the U.S. I always felt completely safe coming and going from the apartment. The studio is across the street from the Mabillon metro (Line 10) and just a 5-10 minute walk to Metro St. Michel (Line 4, with direct RER access to Charles De Gaulle airport). There is an ATM/retrait directly across the street from the apartment, and within 2-4 blocks there are a multitude of bus lines to get you almost anywhere throughout Paris. Walk a couple of blocks to catch Bus #95 and it will take you to Montparnasse, or in the other direction, the Louvre, or l'Opera, Gare L'Est, Montmartre, etc. There is a taxi stand across the street as well, and should you need, you can attract a taxi any time of the day or night. There are fabulous restaurants, cafes, brasseries, boulangeries, markets, etc., all within a 5-minute walk, and the apartment is centrally located between a Pierre Hermé macaron shop, an Eric Kayser boulangerie and a Ladurée shop. The one thing not included in the description of this studio is that the owner, Patri, will at once make you feel comfortable and welcome. She is honest, kind and will respond immediately to any questions, concerns and correspondence. If I am fortunate enough to return to Paris, I will definitely stay here again.

  We stayed here in April 2012. This is truly a perfect location. The neighbors were quiet as well. The apartment itself was very well maintained and we had a great time here. The owner was very easy to work with. All of the information in the apartment about how to use its various amenities is very logically displayed and I never had any trouble. Whenever I return to Paris I would definitely stay here again.

  We stayed in Patri's apartment for five nights last August and we loved it! After touring all of Paris, this was absolutely the best location for us and we would definitely stay there again. Two subways with different lines within a block for super easy access to all of Paris. BNP Bank across the street. Rue de Buci around the corner with wonderful restaurants, bakery (Paul's), a grocery store and boutiques. My daughter and I always ended our evenings with a nice glass of wine and people watching on this charming street. We always felt very safe. Excellent shopping area on the other side of St. Germain des Pres. The neigborhood was just excellent!! The apartment was very nice, just as pictured. The washing machine was very useful after five days! We loved looking out on the Boulevard Saint Germain des Pres at breakfast. The double pane windows kept it quiet at night and the beds were super comfortable! We had wi-fi and free international calls which was the best. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend this apartment!! Thanks Patri!!

  I spent a wonderful 5 nights in this wonderful flat in the best location in Paris. So easy to walk just about anywhere or jump on the metro or bus...all right outside the door. The flat is perfectly equipped ...and the most comfortable bed for sleep. It was immaculate and everything was just as described.....loved looking up at the wooden beams at night. The building entry could use a little sprucing up but the flat itself and the location make up for that 10 times over. I would definitely stay there again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to someone else.

  My husband and I stayed at Patri's in the beginning of April 2011. The location was unbelievable, quick acces to metro's and even if you want to walk from site to site its good for that too! the kitchen was a lifesver. We were able to cook our own meas here and the bed was very comfortbale.Patri did a great job at making you feel welcome and comfortable. We were even late getting there and she jetted across town 2x to help us out. Sorry about the Patri;) The T.V. was fun because when we would be getting ready to go out at night we could turn on French and American music videos. The bathroom was very clean and the washer and dryer were lifesavers as well since we had 3 weeks of traveling to go after Paris. She has guidebooks and maps all around the room and plenty of storage space for your luggage. The kitchen is equipped with everything you would need to make a meal and the grocery store and farmers market is just around the corner of the building. We stayed here for 4 nights and 1 more night would have been nice:) We really liked to people watch from our windows as well as the location is in a very cool hip part of town. I highly recommend this flat, and you just cant beat the price too!

  My wife and I only had a few short days to enjoy Paris. Patri's flat was the perfect location to explore the city with Metro stops only steps outside the front door. Close by are a number of art galleries, restaurants, and tiny streets to explore, and it is walking distance from the Latin Quarter. If you are interested in literary Paris several of the local haunts of persons such as Hemingway, Sartre, and Simone de Beauvoir are located in the surrounding area. The flat itself is clean and very functional with a comfortable bed. Patri was very quick with her replies and refunded our deposit on the day we left. It was a very easy and efficient transaction before and after. We will to stay here again upon returning to Paris!!! Highly recommended.

  This was our third time in Paris, first time in St. Germain area and we loved this apartment and its location. Whether you like to explore Paris on foot, or by using Metro, this apartment is perfectly situated. Around the corner, there’s a boulangerie, butcher shop, wine store and a supermarket. What else do you need? If you prefer to go out for lunch or dinner, there’s plenty of restaurants and cafes. We have a 16-month daughter and we chose this place also because of proximity to Jardin de Luxembourg where she could play with other children. Patri was a great host, always reachable and very helpful. We highly recommend this place!!

  We had a wonderful time at this charming studio. It had everything we needed for our stay, including books with useful info/maps, plus it was very clean, with lots of light, and no noise from the street because of the double-glass windows. I loved being able to make those "free" calls to my family in the U.S. The location of the apartment is ideal, with lots of nice restaurants, cafes, shops and supermarket near by. It is very convenient to have two metro stations so close by as it gave us twice the options to go to the museums and sites we visited. Patri is very professional -- always answered our emails and questions promptly. And above all she's very friendly and a pleasure to deal with.

  I visited Paris from NYC during the first few days of December. I had a FABULOUS time and a big part of it was because of Patri and this fantastic studio in the heart of Paris. Really, you could not ask for a better location while visiting Paris. Patri is so reliable and professional as well as kind and friendly. She was clear in all her communications leading up to the trip and made it very easy for me to settle into the studio. When I arrived, the first thing I noticed about the apartment was how clean and cozy it was. The next thing is that the neighborhood is absolutely charming. If you turn left out of the building, you can wander for hours through the little streets filled with cafes, shops, art galleries, and restaurants. And it's so close to the subway and the Seine - the two main arteries of the city! I recommend this apartment and Patri's service to anyone - in fact, I've told all my friends about it already!
