Great location! Absolutely loved the neighborhood including proximity to the sights. The restaurants, bars, shops and groceries were available everywhere. The apartment was clean, neat and had everything you could want or need for a week in Paris. Check in was easy and Danielle was available for questions (the person who checked me in was helpful but English was not her forte). If you have never experienced apartment living in New York or Boston, the entrance to the building may surprise you. It's very old, kinda musty and dark. It's normal and in no way a reflection of the condition of the actual apartment. The buttons on the walls that are for the lights. They look like doorbells. :-) If you are unable to lug your stuff up a twisty narrow old staircase this might not be for you. It was fine for me! Shower was great and bed was comfy. It got a bit loud at night as the neighborhood is lively but the window kept the noise down quite a bit and there's a fan in the apartment that provided some white noise if you need it. Overall the apartment was an excellent value!
