Rue Cler

In Paris, we stayed in an apartment that belonged to a friend of Steph's family. Not only did that allowed us to save money on lodging (the lowest prices for hostels/hotels that I've seen in the summer are 25 euros a night per person), but the location was situated near famous neighborhoods and attractions. The Eiffel Tower was a 10 minute walk from the apartment.

The street is called: 

This cobblestoned street bustled with activity at all hour of the day.
We came to this bakery every morning for some chocolate croissants, baguettes, and other delicious pastries.
People can sit, eat, and drink for as long as they want. The waiters don't hustle you as they do in the States. A lot of people-watching goes on at these cafes.
Cafe du Marche and Tribeca are situated right next to each other, owned by the same person, and have similar food.
Bikes here don't have training wheels.
It was a very safe and cute neighborhood to stay in. I loved it here.
