We had a fantastic stay. The place is amazing. We used many of their local suggestions and especially loved Rue de Montorgueil for all our food shopping. Stohrer's Bakery for croissants, baguettes and amazing desserts was our favorite. The main room is really spectacular! The windows open all the way and let the sunshine in the morning. The street is loud and urban, but it was really quiet with the windows closed. There were fans for the hot days, which we hardly needed. Beds were comfortable, and the bedrooms basic. It was more space than we needed for our family of 5, but nobody is complaining about that! The elevator is fast for Europe and really welcoming for our luggage. The metro stop is literally across the street. We bought a weekly Navigo pass at the airport CDG and rode the metro everywhere, easily. We could have walked to many of the places directly from the apartment(Marais, Les Halles, Louvre, Notre Dame area, Pompidou), but we had a grumpy 8 year old with us, so we rode more than we needed. We booked a private cooking class with La Cuisine Paris that was a highlight for us and we did an amazing "free" tour of Montmartre with Discover Walks.com...we wish we would have discovered those earlier in our stay. Alexandre was very helpful and accommodating when our arrival continued to be delayed. I'd love to stay there again.
