In the 4th Arrondisement, that already is a bonus. You are already in the middle of everything. 10mins away from the louvre and Notre Dame. 5 mins away from the nearest metro. What more can you ask? The apartment was pretty small but like our french friends said, thats pretty much how Parisians live . We had most of the things we needed there so the small size wasn't a deal breaker at all. The heater was nice as it was cold when we were there. Internet was also fast and they also give you free Free Wifi access to help you when you are out of the house. We highly recommend the place.
