We enjoyed our stay in Le Latin and would recommend it to family and friends. The apartment looks like the photos though we did find that there is more wear and tear to the apartment than shows in the photos. For example, there are a lot of marks on the walls. But it is a rental and damage is to be expected.
My husband and I were traveling with our 1 year old and 5.5 year old. The apartment is not babyproof, but some rearranging of furniture helped with that. There is tons of space and storage. Being up just one flight of stairs was nice. The elevator works but is really only suited for one person at a time so we mostly took the stairs. Le Latin is very well located directly on the Seine so it is easy to find. The location is top notch! The apartment is very quiet and we only occasionally heard people walking around in the upstairs apartment. There is no street noise. The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans, cutlery, and dishes. Even basics like salt, pepper, sugar, and coffee were available. Plenty of bath towels were provided. I used the washing machine often and appreciated the clothes drying rack since dryers in France don’t operate like American dryers. We did find that the apartment ran a little warm, so the individual AC units in the bedrooms came in very handy. Gilles was very helpful when we needed him. We appreciate his help and kindness.
