Surrounded by cheese makers and bakers, the food scents drifting off the street will entice you out to sample some authentic Parisian flavours in no time. Indeed, with a host of eateries and bars on your doorstep, you won’t find the need to cook much during your stay, even though the apartment boasts a compact but well-equipped kitchen. An ideal base for a couple on a romantic break in the city, just bear in mind that this home is on the third floor with no lift, so you’ll have to tackle the stairs on returning home.
