We loved our stay in the apartment - it was right in the heart of the buzz of Paris, close enough to walk to the Louvre, the Seine, the Opera House, Tuillieres and much more, shopping on the doorstep and heaps of restaurants, but when the street door was shut to the apartment block, there wasn't a sound from outside, so very quiet. The apartment was very comfortable, great to have a separate bedroom, and though small it provided comfort and everything we needed. The washing/drying machine was a real bonus! Thanks so much, we'd stay again.
