This flat is very pretty. Looks just like the pictures. Kitchen was great for cooking a meal. Washer/dryer was helpful. It's very close to the metro and is also a beautiful walk to the Seine (plus other interesting areas). Other reviewers mentioned some negatives on the location and I disagree with their opinions. It's not as ideal a spot as Marais, etc., but it was centrally located and quite quiet for a city. There were some prostitutes on Rue Saint Denis, but nothing's compulsory ;). The unit also stayed very cool, which we appreciated. Only complaints are that the converter didn't work and it was on the first floor in the entry way (so not ideal for having the curtains open at night).
