LOCATION is everything! This flat is perfect for walking to many of the attractions, even with small kids in tow. It is near plenty of great eateries, shopping and night life. I can't think of a better location to stay when exploring Paris. The apartment layout feels quite spacious by Parisian standards and the bathroom is very large. The floors were not cleaned very well before our arrival but the host was quick to respond and get someone to the apartment to clean it properly. The apartment felt very safe and the host provided a baby cot for our little one. The lift to the second floor was super handy for our kids and umbrella stroller. If you are a light sleeper you should know that there is construction in the apartment below this one and they start early every morning except Sunday. I saw that someone mentioned the construction back in February but it looks like they still have a ways to go. If you are not a light sleeper then the apartment could not be a better choice for you. I feel like the value for the money was very good and I would not hesitate to stay here again!
