We enjoyed our stay - you can't beat the location, in the old Town but right by the river and so only a stroll to many other restaurants and shops of the Presqu'ile. The extra living space, compared to many inner city French flats, was also much appreciated. As other reviews have mentioned, there can be noise in the lounge room in the evenings - you are, after all, next to a line of cafes - but it's quiet in the bedroom. The only downside I can imagine is that you wouldn't want to leave windows open on a summer evening, as people smoke outside. But we would be very happy to stay here again.
