The apartment is beautiful, light, new and clean. It is in a great location for shops and restaurants. Minutes to neighborhood cafes and specialty food stores. 10-15 min. down good shopping streets to the Seine. Cut through the Archives for the garden during business hours. The street is busy and somewhat noisy, but you can close the windows and block the noise out. The duvet supplied was a little warm since we couldn’t sleep with the windows open. The queen sized bed was very comfortable. The metro station is a few blocks away, but we used Uber anyway.
