Staying depends on what you like to do.
If you like food, stay in the latin quarter, there are a ton of great priced eateries between Bld St.germain and the river. They are all set menu, but you'll pass over 50 restaurants in 20 minutes, you'll find something. That's like the 5th and 6th arrondissements of paris.
I had a good vibe with the 11th as well.
Night life is sort of diffused aroundthe city, the sleazy bit is between the 9th and 18th, and some night venues inthe 11th as well.
Avoid the African gangs, particularly around the 18th, the bascillica and stuff.
For the metro I found the best was to ask for 'Dix-Billet'. [Dis...bill-ey] 10 tickets, the best way to travel around paris by far No building inthe periphique is more than 500m from a metro station. I would assert you don't require the tourist pass. You can walk from any metro, and there is plenty to do wthin the city you won't travel anywhere via RER.
My favourite city to relax, according to the city, there is over 100 museums and art galleries. The Louvre is amazing value for 10 euro.
