Great little apartment and good central location to the Marais, Ile St Loyis and Ile de la Cite. Cafes below can be chatty but not overly noisy, but that is part of the charm. Rather gloomy qnd slightly smelly entrance, but don't be put off as the appartment is lovely, clean and bright. There is a tiny hob by the sink, so cooking would be tricky but everything else well appointed in the kitchen. My daughter stayed in a luxurious large sofa bed which was perfect. Avenue de Archives is a great spot.
