You will love the location of this cute apartment. It is convenient to everything. I stayed for two months and after only a couple of days I felt completely at home. The spiral staircase up to the apartment is narrow and a little rough, but it is an old building so you have to forgive her quirks. You will find everything in the kitchen that you need and a market and wine shops are only 3 minutes away. The bathrooms both have nice bathtubs. As a woman staying alone, I always felt safe because the locking hardware on the door is very secure. I rarely heard or saw neighbors in the building because there is only one apartment per floor. My only advice is that if you are staying for a while and you are particular about your pillow you should bring your own. I was very glad that I brought my feather pillow. There is so much closet space. More than anyone would use for a visit - lots of hangers too. The area can get a little noisy at night because there are so many restaurants and clubs in the area, but because the bedroom windows open onto a utility courtyard, it is very quiet when you go to bed. I am sure that if you stay at Benoit’s place you will love it as much as I did.
