Gary's place is perfectly located in the center of Paris. All the major sites and tons of cafes, bistros, and shops are all within walking distance. The apartment itself is a bit small but the location is perfect. There was some street noise as the apartment is on the second level but to be expected in the city and it wasn't anything too loud. There are numerous cafes and restaurants literally outside your door and a metro stop just a few blocks away although Paris is so walkable we didn't even use the metro. Overall a great place in the heart of it all, would stay again.
