Three large windows flood both living room and bedroon with brilliant light and provide a view of the courtyard below.

The kitchen is well equipped with an electric oven and glass stovetop, a refrigerator, a microwave, various small electric appliances, and stylish dishware, glassware and utensils. The open bar area is a perfect spot for a casualcafé au lait and croissants or an intimate dinner.

The National Assembly is close by and is the start of the famous Boulevard Saint-Germain which leads into the St-Germain-des-Près district, the centre of French intellectual life after World War II.

Quintessential French cafés can be found on almost every corner, of which the most famous are Les Deux Magots and le Café de Flore, and there are also many outstanding but reasonably priced restaurants throughout the neighbourhood.
