The apartment was accurately represented. It's simple and small but sufficient. As is clearly obvious the kitchen area would not be sufficient for anyone planning to cook during their stay but was otherwise more than adequate for most travelers with functioning refrigerator and hot plate. Location is as good as it gets without being in Arrondissement 1 to 3. It was less than a block from the subway entrance for Line 1 (the most important line in the city) which made it easy to get to the center of Zone 1. Very convenient. There are a few nice, although not outstanding, cafes and restaurants and a Carrefour market within three blocks. The shower has plenty of water pressure and hot water. Toilet was down the hall but I didn't find that to be an issue. I never saw anyone else in the building or hallways. Very quite space. There was a fan that made the lack of air conditioning tolerable. That would only be a minor discomfort on the very hottest days of summer. 350 days per year it would be totally sufficient. Carole always responded rapidly to inquiries. She speaks perfect English as well. I would stay here again given the opportunity!
