This compact, ground-floor apartment was clean and the beds comfortable. There were four of us. It can sleep five: there's a pull out bed in the couch in the living room, but we didn't use it. The apartment is a perfect base for touring Paris. It sits between two metro stations, and it's an easy commute from Gare du Nord. Many of the major tourist sites of central Paris are a short walk or a quick metro ride from the apartment. There are lots of bakeries and cafes in the immediate neighborhood. The only con is that the walls are very thin. Bring your bouchons d'oreilles, because the Spanish-speaking neighbors who share a wall are very loud and keep late hours. They bathe their kids around midnight in a bathroom abutting the flat's master bedroom. The children like to sing in the tub. Other than that one issue, it's a lovely base for touring Paris.
