Charming, safe, clean, quiet and perfectly situated directly across the Seine from Notre Dame. Ideal for a single traveler or a couple. Plenty of hot water in both showers and the washing machine is a very nice amenity with a laundry rack available to hang clothes to dry. Typical for Paris in general, the apartment is not air conditioned however, there are several moveable fans and the apartment is quite cool at night with the windows open (we stayed during the extraordinary heat in mid-August but were not affected by the heat at night given the fans circulating the air and the windows open). Wifi was excellent in the kitchen and bedroom. Access to the apartment is by a gorgeous, narrow curved staircase off the interior courtyard. The apartment is "L" shaped with the kitchen in the center, living room is to the left with a hall toilet and separate shower room. Access to the main bedroom is to the right off of the kitchen by walking through a room that has a twin bed. The bedroom has a full bathroom with shower. There is one tv located in the bedroom. The neighborhood is incredibly situated surrounded by tons of restaurants and stores including the Panteon and Le Sorbonne a quick walk behind the apartment and Notre Dame right out front and a million things to see and experience in between. Walk up to the Panteon and there is a breathtaking, unobstructed view of the Eiffel Tower that lights up for 5 minutes every hour beginning from dusk until 1 a.m. which should not be missed. We really enjoyed the apartment and access to everything including the metro and the famous vendors along the Seine. We really felt like we lived in Paris rather than feeling like tourists. It was delightful.
