This was our 3rd stay in Haven of Peace, which should be enough to tell you how much we enjoy it. Jocelyne is a very congenial and helpful host and is only a moment away if you should need any assistance. She has provided a modern, clean and spacious accommodation with an open floorplan. A full two bedroom, 2 bath with a conveniently located WC. The 2 bedrooms (one ensuite) are completely separate with a full bed upstairs and two twin beds downstairs. It may be possible to make the twins into a full bed. We’ve never needed it, so did not ask. There is a roller bed downstairs and the living room couch is a full pullout if you don’t mind slightly more close sleeping and living quarters.
A minor caution is you have trouble with stairs or are mobility challenged, be aware. However, if you don’t need the lower level (everything is on the ground floor except one bedroom, one bathroom and the washer/dryer combo unit) it would not be a problem.
You have a cuisine américaine with full sized refrigerator/freezer. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals from the excellent Marché de Grenelle (Su/Wed) under the raised M6 metro line. You have a Nespresso machine, standard coffee maker, water kettle, pots, pans, cooking and eating utensils and more.
The private patio and glass enclosed sitting area expand the space and add light as well as a lovely spot for an aperitif, dinner or just relaxing. This is a lovely respite from the energy of Paris.
You are located in the 15th Arrondissement, which has become one of my personal favorites, within short walking distance of 3 metro lines, the Champ de Mar with its incomparable Tour Eiffel and much more.
If you want to dine upscale without the Michelin stars and the tourists, there is Axuria just a short distance away (15 min walk or two stops on the M8 from Commerce) or Le Beurre Noisette on Rue Vasco de Gama (about 20 min on M8 from Commerce). Axuria is about both food and the experience. Noisette is about the food. In addition there are 3 markets within a short walking distance, a Carrefour City on the same street, a Franprix a short distance down Commerce and a large Monoprix across from the La Motte-Picquet metro station as well as number of boulangeries, patisseries. boucheries, and vin du cave (including more than one of the ubiquitous Nicolas) in the neighborhood. You cannot go wrong.
