Raquel's place was great for our stay in Paris! It was clean and the bed was very comfortable. It is wonderfully located. It is in a small square full of restaurants/bakeries, etc. but the apartment is nicely built so you cant hear anything at night. It is about a 15 min walk to notre dame and the Louvre and runs parallel to Rue du Rivoli which has a bunch of shops in case you need to purchase something. It was a great apartment for the value!
