First is location, location, location. Steps away from the Eiffel Tower, metro stops (although they are closed for the month of August), restaurants, supermarkets, and everything else. The apartment was well furnished. Beds were comfortable. It was hot so having AC was a big bonus. A couple things to note: it is on the 5th floor with a small lift also someone always seemed to be cooking onions or garlic around us that we determined came from the apartment below (but that is just part of a city living). We would definitely stay again and they were great hosts.
