Luc's apartment is in a wonderful neighborhood, that is also well situated for seeing Paris as it is not far from Gare de Lyon. Luc made great recommendations (do not miss Blé Sucré). There are plenty of great restaurants in the area as well as the marche d'Aligre. The apartment itself faces in to the building's lovely courtyard so it is very quiet even with the windows open. Our three year old was very comfortable on the pullout and the bed is quite comfortable. It is well equipped with everything you may need for your stay from cooking a meal to heading out to have a picnic in the park.
