The apartment was everything we needed for an amazing first time stay in Paris! The location is perfect and anything you need is within walking distance. We had no problems easily getting there via the metro train from Gare du Nord (Eurostar). There are several metro stations nearby that can get you anywhere you need to go BUT we mostly walked to everything because we wanted to see the city. The apartment was the perfect size for a travelling couple. One amenity we were surprised to find was the washer/dryer in the kitchen which came in handy! We felt very comfortable and safe in this apartment and would definitely stay again.
