It's a very nice and friendly neighbourhood. Most of the people living in the building are good friends of ours.

     It's a very lively place, full of cafés and small restaurants that are open over the week end. A typically left bank atmosphere but not a posh one, more family like, many students around because of La Sorbonne and top French high schools.

    The rue Mouffetard (3 min walk) is a typical cobbled old French street, very pictoresque, with its traditionnal outdoor fruit and vegetable markets, cheese shops, typical bakeries (with delicious cakes and French breads and all kind of 'baguettes') and several groceries and delikatessen ( a delicious Italian, one of the best Greek traiteur in Paris (Mavromatis), Lebanese food...). On Sunday morning, it's very lively and you can take your breakfeast or lunch at the café La Bourgogne (place Saint Médard)

    There is a farmers’ market three times a week (Sunday, Wenesday and Friday morning) selling fresh products in Place Monge (5 minutes walk).

     The Jardin du Luxembourg and the Jardin des Plantes are a 10 minutes walk, Saint-Germain des Prés, La Seine and Notre-Dame-de Paris are a 15 minutes walk.

    Several buses lines stop (21, 27, 83, 91) are just moments from our door, the Metro stops Censier-Daubenton  and Luxembourg RER are only a 5 minutes walk and  a 10 minutes walk away.

    It's a perfect home away from home for visiting Paris and enjoying the typical parisian way of life of the left Bank.
