Can't say enough about the location. You'll get a great feel for the spirit of the city, but in a quaint, relaxing neighborhood. As the pictures show, the apartment shares an entrance-way with a lovely flower shop, and it is within close proximity to countless cafe, restaurant, and shopping options. The apartment is within walking distance to most tourist destinations you would be interested in (15 min to the Louvre, 10 min to d'Orsay, 30 min to Notre Dame or Eiffel Tower). Despite the below critiques, I highly recommend this location--it's really a gem.
A few things to know before you book:
1. The bed is located on a loft. You will not be able to stand upright if you are more than about 4 feet tall. That said, it is by no means claustrophobic.
2. There is a bit of smell to the place. It's not quite offensive, but certainly a bit funky in the afternoons.
3. The washer works, but the dryer doesn't (though this may be fixed by the time you visit). We air-dried our items, and all was fine.
