Paris apartment building

My wife wanted to spend a month in Paris. She thought that we could rent a furnished apartment, cook our own meals, work for several hours immediately after getting up (and still be able to speak on the Vonage phone with our colleagues in the US who would be getting to work), and enjoy Paris the way Parisians do -- we did that in Montreal and it worked out great. In the end due to lack of time we spent less time and stayed in Citadines Bastille Marais, an apartel, but this is the view of a very typical apartment building on Boulevard Richard Lenoir. Maybe next time.
