The apartment was just as described, on the top floor of a charming building in the 11th arrondissement with elevator. I have seen many, many Paris apartments in my years of traveling and living there, and this one is designed and decorated in such a way as to get a lot of comfort and convenience from a small space. Everything was perfectly clean upon arrival and I was greeted by a multilingual friend of the owner's. Rue Keller always used to be a very quiet street but has become busier as new restaurants and shops have opened there (at night one can hear some talk in the street, but this is part of the attraction of a big city). The advantages of the location are many, however: there are good, typical restaurants on the both the rue de la Roquette side and the Avenue Ledru Rollin side of rue Keller, along with Metro stations, several Vélib (bike share) stations, and supermarkets/green markets/bakeries all very close. I would gladly rent this apartment again.
