GREAT location for a taste of local culture--right on Mouffetard which is where the market is where sellers of fruits, fish, meat, cheeses and other whatnots are, as well as several bounlangeries and many restaurants. The apartment has been renovated and stays comfortably. About 15-20 minutes to the museum area (ie. Louvre) by metro, but 7 takes you directly there and no changing lines. Comfortable bed, no air con but a fan's present.
