Location is everything. Wonderful location to just walk out the door and go . 900 meters to Gare St Lazare. You can get anywhere This is a very upscale apartment. If you are looking for complete privacy this may not be for you. There is an interior stairwell to the lower portion of the house that is open . You can hear everything. Sophie , our hostess was lovely, friendly, and helpful. Her cat came to check us out so if you have allergies to cats, be warned. Sophie is a private guide for the Louvre . She is very knowledgeable about what to do in Paris, and the best ways to get around. This is a 2 person max stay. But you are staying in a glamorous private home in the heart of Paris
