just 2 min walk to metro stops Anvers, Abesses and Pigalle

Francoise is wonderful. This was our first trip to Europe and first time booking through HomeAway and it could not have gone more smoothly. Francoise was more than helpful and very personable. The apartment is lovely and very close to bakeries for your daily bread and pastries. The market is just at the entrance to the gated courtyard and makes for a most convenient place to stop off to pick up groceries as you return from a day of exploring. The best feature, that I just have to mention, was the in-unit laundry. We were traveling across europe for 3 weeks and sought out apartments that had laundry units as we were packing light. It was great to pop in a load rather than do each item one-by-one in the sink. Montmartre is, literally, about a block or two away and there are shops, bars, bakeries everywhere you look; a truly wonderful location to call 'home' for a week.

Since our trip I've raved about Home Away and Francoise and told all of my friends and family that I know just the place to book for their first trip to Paris. As for us, we can't wait to go back.

Both my husband and I were delighted about the location of the studio. It is literally halfway between two metro stations, and situated very close to many boutiques and stores that are unique to French style and tastes. There are a few bakeries that are literally just around the corner, absolutely delicious. The neighbors were so kind and gracious, quiet and helpful.

To visit the tourist attractions, each trip on the metro took approximately 15 mins with one change here and there. Easy, convenient. We were cautioned about pickpockets but while on the train, the locals were the very ones to be watching out for us as foreigners! Literally.

Françoise is a pure delight to communicate with, and provided personal detail and assistance at all times. Alice is the kind guardian of the key and flat-- she was also so helpful and kind.

The place was immaculate and quaint, exactly as the photos reveal. There is a little washing machine in the washroom, which was really convenient-- we used it twice during our 5 day stay, which was great for our baby's clothes and such. There is a drying rack right beside the sink, so the load was dried by morning.
The spacious shower is amazing-- a lovely surprise for such a small place!

Most importantly, we had our little 9 month old baby with us. Having two fold out beds worked really well for us, and a perfect little kitchen to provide her meals is something that would prove to be difficult in a hotel.
There were pots and pans, a coffee maker, wine glasses, a fridge, tv with international channels, Internet and international calling. We cooked snacks every day. There is a huge grocery store 4 mins away, and several tiny markets around the blocks-- not to mention a fruit stand literally outside the gate.

We are used to staying in 4-5 star hotels and this is our first time trying homeaway. Definitely changed our experienced, enriching our stay in Paris.
Would return to stay here. Hope this info is helpful to you, and enjoy!

We absolutely loved our apartment where we stayed for one month. It's peaceful, safe, quiet, clean and well cared for. It's the best place to stay if you want to live like a Parisian and experience the best of Paris. Easy access to transportation, walk to the helpful tourism office, shopping and restaurants galore. We enjoy exercising so we walked to the Louvre, Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and Champs Elysses in about 30-45 minutes while taking in all the sights along the way and stopping for lunch. We also enjoyed the open-top tour bus which took us to all the same places. We spent time at Monceau Park where we jogged with the locals and enjoyed sitting in the grass for lunch. Our favorite is the Sacre Couer - there's nothing else like it! it's right here in the neighborhood. We sat on the steps and enjoyed the beauty of overlooking the city of Paris.
