I was really looking forward to our trip in Paris and I have to say it could have been a lot more enjoyable if we had stayed in a different apartment. The noise is a big issue, you can hear the metro very clearly as well as the neighbors having sex, the isolation is done really cheap. The smell of cigarette was also really bad. If I had known this from previous reviews I would have booked a different apartment. As good as the location is (you're in the middle of everything), I will not stay in this apartment ever again. The positive was how helpful and accommodating Agnes was but it doesn't make up for how smelly and nosy the apartment is.
