Apartment is charming and unique. The kitchen sunroom looking out onto the back garden is just lovely. Apartment is on a fairly busy street, but it is tucked back off an interior courtyard, so you don't hear any noise from the street. There is some noise of children playing from the school behind the apartment during the day. The neighborhood is filled with shops and restaurants, and is close to the metro. A wonderful place to visit Paris in a truly wonderful Parisian home!
