The location was great! The apartment was perfect for a large group. We were 4 adults with 5 teenagers, and everyone had plenty of space. There is no air conditioning, which usually wouldn't be an issue, but during a heat wave, it does get warm in the apartment. There were two small fans. Some in our group slept with the windows open, while others felt that the street below was too noisy to do so. It was a trade-off for the convenient location. Public transportation was close, as were shops, bakeries, cafes, etc. We were able to walk/travel easily to lots of places on our Paris sightseeing list. When we left Paris, our car rental place was just down the street. There's a washer & dryer in the apartment, which was helpful since our luggage didn't make it to Paris the same time as we did! We would definitely stay here again.
