If you're looking to book a place in Paris that feels like a home - this is your place. While you may not be "near monuments" or have views of the Eiffel Tower from here, let's be real - that's very cliche. Notre Dame is about a 10 minute walk from here & this neighborhood "La Marais" is incredible. You're in the heart of the neighborhood, and you may even find yourself not wanting to leave!. Within 100 steps you can find supermarkets, bars, shops, local artisans, gardens, etc. The walk up to the 5th floor was easy enough, the stairs are so short that it didn't feel bad at all. And the balcony, oh the balcony. What a fun treat! Getting to sit and have a coffee while listening to the city sounds was a romantic little moment the apartment offers its guests. We would stay here again.
