We stayed in Paris for three nights and this was a wonderful location. You can walk out the front or back door and easily find restaurants, shopping and directly in front of the apartment is the RER train station. Unfortunately there was a lot of construction going on during our stay so the direct acess was around the corner and there was some construction noise. Once the construction is finished though, it should be awesome.

We had two couples staying in the apartment and though it was small (but we were expecting this), it worked out okay. If you were staying longer than three days, I would recommend a bigger apartment. Having only one bathroom for two couples gets a bit tricky. Also, be sure you are in shape enough to climb the steep ladder to the loft! :)

It was overall clean, well-kept, very conviently located and we were pleased with it.

Area recommendations: if you go out the back door, there's a Crepe stand where we stopped and had breakfast two of the three mornings! We recommend the Nutella and banana crepe!

There are a tons of "Happy Hours" in the area in the evening and so many wonderful restaurants!
