A lovely apartment to use to live or work in Paris. Very good transport connections, a great neighborhood (a Franprix just a few seconds from the door and the adjacent Rue Daguerre has lovely small restaurants and especially delicatessens and artisan bakeries). The elevator for this 4th floor apartment is very much appreciated. The street itself, the Rue du Maine, can be quite loud at times -- the windows can keep out most of the noise, but on warm evenings, if you open the windows, you will hear the noise. Very good WiFi, enough storage space, no washing machine. We would return again.
