This apartment is well-situated for anyone who wants to explore Paris. Just about everything is within a 25-minute walk - - museums, excellent department stores, and the many many cafes and bakeries. The oldest covered market in Paris, Marche des Enfants Rouges, is nearby and a great place to buy produce and prepared food. The apartment is small and has no windows in which to look outside but I don't come to Paris to spend time in an apartment. It suited my needs perfectly.
