The apartment was modern, very clean and quiet. The location is absolutely amazing. Within 1minute of Rue de Saint Germaine - boulangeries, your choice of cafes, liquor/wine store right as you exit the door. Loved the character of the old building including the stairs - take note; the apt is on the 6th floor with no elevator, so can be quite a hike with luggage. We got used to it after a few times :) Overall, loved the view from the apartment at sunset and was everything that my wife and I were looking for. Thank you, Marc
