Wow. This apartment is great! Everything was as described. The apartment was stylish and really clean, with newer kitchen and bathroom. The shower was amazing. The location was great. It really was within walking distance to everything, but there was also the option of taking the metro to everything, as there are a few stations nearby. There is a great open air market street a few blocks away and we ate at a different restaurant there each night. We had 4 adults stay here for one week. The size was perfect for us, although each person only had one or two small bags each. There are some narrow stairs leading up to the apartment, but you quickly get used to them and they are not that bad. If someone sleeps on the sofa bed, there is a street light and noise at night, but we were so exhausted by the time we got home each night that we easily slept. The neighboring streets are always full of people, which I like because it makes me feel safer. Romain, the host, was really nice and showed us around his apartment before he departed. He also left some maps and tour guide books for us, as well as recommendations for local eateries. I wouldn't change a thing about our stay and I would recommend this apartment to everyone. I will be staying here again on future trips to Paris.
