My husband and infant daughter and I stayed in this flat for 9 days in June, and it was lovely. The location is very central to all sorts of sites. We walked to St. Germain de Pres, jardin de Luxembourg, the Louvre, Musee D’Orsay, Eiffel Tower, Place de La Concorde, Musee de Orangerie, jardin de Tuileries, Notre dame, and many others. The flat is surrounded by great cafes and restaurants, as well as boulangeries and patisseries. The neighborhood was pretty quiet, a bit noisier on the weekend nights, but nothing crazy. The view of the Eiffel Tower is spectacular. It’s a direct view, the pictures in the listing are accurate. We got tons of video and photos of it all lit up and twinkling at night. It really was breathtaking. The caretaker of the apartment was very nice, arranging an earlier check-in for us. My suggestion would be to have that discussion as soon as you know your arrival time so that you can go directly to the flat. There is an elevator in the building, although it was broken for all but three days of our stay, so we walked up and down to and from the fifth floor (carrying a baby no less), which got old, but we were lucky the building even had an elevator to be honest, a lot of them don’t. Really the vast majority of our experience here was perfection. The only things I would tell anyone else staying here to be aware of and plan for are 1) many of the outlets in the apartment don’t work, so charging things close to the bed or in any specific location can be tricky; 2) the combo washer/dryer is a nightmare. I’m not used to this kind of machine but it took forever to run a load and the clothes never really got dry; 3) there is no toilet in the bathroom in the bedroom, not a big deal just a little inconvenient at night; 4) there are very limited towels, sheets, blankets, etc. so plan accordingly; and 5) there is NO A/C. The weather was not supposed to be as hot as it was when we were there, but it ended up being in the mid 80’s (F) most days and the apartment was unbearable to sleep in for us. There is no fan available in the apartment, so I would request that they supply one if you’re going in hotter months, or find a place with A/C. Trust me, it gets really hot up there and if you’re used to A/C in the summer you will have a hard time. It doesn’t get cooler until around 1 AM, and if you’re going to be spending any time in the apartment during the day it will get up into the 90’s in there. That part was really unfortunate, really the only “bad” part of our stay. If they had provided just one good fan we could have placed by the bed at night, it would have changed everything. Other than that, it really was a great home base for us. We spent the majority of our time out, but when we were in we had plenty of space and all the amenities we needed. I would definitely stay here again, just maybe in winter next time!
