We had a wonderful four night stay in March at Ben's apartment. The apartment is actually much more airy, sunlit and spacious than the pictures indicate. Although a loft it certainly does not feel that way when in it. Roof top views from three directions and the Eiffel Tower view from the large bedroom window just makes it perfect. The location is excellent for walking as well as metro taking. Many good restaurants within easy walking distance. We had a delightful lunch two blocks away at Chez Janou and a delightful dinner at Le Servan a 15 minute walk away.
Ben and his friend managed the check in and check out with ease. All in all a great stay. We will return.
