The second we walked into the apartment, we were happy with how light and bright it was! It is very nicely decorated and functional-even for our big group of six. We found the furniture to be mostly comfortable and clean. The kitchen could have used a few more cups and dishes, but overall it was a very workable kitchen! We were happy to have a nespresso coffee maker. There was a bit of peeling paint in the bathroom, but that’s just a cosmetic issue and didn’t effect our use of the bathroom. The location of the apartment couldn’t have been any better or quieter! It’s right by the opera house and walkable to The Louvre, yet nicely set back in a courtyard. We did have a bit of a problem working with the radiators, causing the apartment to be overly warm, but opening the windows helped a lot. However, having the windows open invited a lot of flies in. No big deal though. Overall, I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Paris!
