This is a great little apartment, in many ways. It is conveniently located close to the Louvre, the Palais Royal & Musee d'Orsay. There are several cafes within immediate walking distance - great for breakfast before heading out for the day! We especially appreciated that there is an elevator, which is a luxury for Paris. The apartment is immaculately clean & the decorating is lovely. However, a major difficulty is that one must walk about 8 minutes past the apartment location in order to obtain the keys & then the same time back again, which is annoying when arriving with luggage to tote around. The fold-down bed is quite comfortable and the apartment is quiet so you can get a good night's sleep. When the bed is up, however, the cushions of the sofa which replace it are very hard, so there is no comfortable place to sit at the end of the day. The host was quickly responsive when we had a question. Taking all the above factors into account, I would still choose to stay here again.
