The apartment is exactly as it looks in the photos. The building is very secure and in the heart of Paris. Easy to walk to Metro stations, the Louvre, the Marais, Notre Dame, and all other central points. The neighborhood is filled with places to eat and shop. Quite lively at night, and you need to watch yourself a bit as a tourist because there are all sorts of people about, but the apartment is completely quiet no matter what is happening outside. Both the loft bed and the sofa bed were very comfortable and all the amenities are there - coffee maker, microwave, washing machine, good shower, fan, TV, wifi, etc. I recommend this apartment without hesitation and would definitely stay there again for its value and convenience!
