The apartment is 220 square feet, charming and cosy. It has been completely renovated in the spring
The Rue de Grenelle is widely regarded as one of Paris's best addresses. Running from the Champs de Mars (Eiffiel Tower), it passes through the Invalid (Napoleon's Tomb), the Ministries area, and come to the heart of St. Germain des Pres. Within easy walking distance are the Musee d'Orsay, the Louvre, the Musee Rodin, the Jardin des Tuileries, and the Hotel Matignon (official residence of the French Prime Minister).
Our apartment building is just at the corner of the rue de Grenelle and the Boulevard Raspail. It's 1 minute from the subway station (Rue du Bac), and 3 minutes from the "Le Bon March" (Paris's equivalent of Saks Fifth Avenue).
The apartment is in a "Directoire" style building, approached by entering through a long courtyard, decorated with green plants. There is no elevator, but the wooden stairwell has been well maintained, and spacious las vegas air and hotel deals to climb up to the third and the last floor easily.

As for the furnishings, they are also new as of this year (2003), and include a top quality double bed, a television with English language channels, etc.. We could also supply a comfortable folding bed upon request. But the apartment cannot accommodate more than two adults, but could possibly suit a couple with a very small child (there would be an additional charge). Naturally, we supply towels, sheets, duvets, and other necessities.
As for more practical concerns, a two-minute walk from our front door takes you to the intersection of Boulevard St. Germain and Boulevard Raspail. Here, there are bus-stops (leading to virtually everywhere in Paris), a taxi stand, and a Metro station (Rue du Bac).

These include bakeries, a butcher shop, a fish market, an excellent "traiteur" las vegas air and hotel deals (selling superb take-away food), and a grocery shop open 24 hours a day.

The high-end department store - "Le Bon Marche" las vegas air and hotel deals is 2 minutes away from the apartment.

Within a five-minute walk of the apartment are two major attractions las vegas air and hotel deals for food lovers: La Grande Epicerie de Paris, and the Organic las vegas air and hotel deals Market.
