If you’re looking for a place to stay in the center of Paris that is walking distance to literally everything, this is the place to stay! I stayed there with my husband and my two children,14 and 10. The street was centrally located and very safe. There was a wonderful café where we could buy cappuccinos and croissants in the morning. It was a five minute walk to the Louvre. The Seine is right there and in the mornings I went jogging up and down. The apartment itself was spotless. It wasn’t that big a deal to lug the luggage up the stairs, as I have heard others say. The beds were extremely comfortable and even my children were able to sleep very well on the pull-out bed in the living room. If I am lucky enough to return to Paris anytime soon, I would definitely stay here again! The location made it so easy to explore the best neighborhoods in Paris! Thank you also to our host, Jean-Luc. Lastly, and this was not in any of the other reviews that I saw, is it the apartment is across the street from a wonderful tribute to the great Parisian icon, Serge Gainsbourg. Turns out that this is actually where he lived! There are people paying homage to him periodically throughout the day, taking pictures and posing in front of his house, which is now covered in tribute tags. You can Google information about this. It’s pretty cool!
