The apartment is just as pictured and well equipped for a family stay. Pierre was wonderful and so accommodating at check in. Easy walking distance to many attractions and Metro. Neighborhood looks a bit sketchy from there outside but once the secured courtyard door is opened it is quite private and clean. Beds are very comfortable. Bathroom is small (welcome to Paris) and the glass shower "curtain" can be tricky to use. Without getting water outside of the tub. Those staying with someone elderly or not super mobile may want to note that the stairs to he loft are quite narrow and there is a gap before the handrail begins so it could be a bit treacherous. I would highly recommend this home for anyone coming to Paris!
