Everything is as it is pictured!
Maud is very quick to respond and included helpful tips and suggestions.
Pros:
You can walk to the Louvre, Pompidou Center (literally across the street), Notre Dame, Saint-Eustache (stunning cathedral) more restaurants than one can count, the mall, a city park, and more in under 15 minutes!
Metro is really close-by.
Comfortably sleeps 4 (either 2 couples or a family of 4--if the children are comfortable sharing a bed).
Elevator in the building is fantastic after being out all day.
Kitchen has everything needed. It is not stocked with coffee, tea, and cream, but Flunch is right below and will have a latte ready in minutes.
The balcony is great in the morning and evening (after the sun drops below the building).
Washing machine is a bonus if you are staying long or are traveling to/from somewhere else!
Cons:
We were out all day, every day, so we left the sofa in its "bed" form all of the time. If you were planning to hang out in the evening, you'd have to take the time to change it to a couch as there isn't much other seating.
If you happen to visit in summer, there isn't a fan or means of cooling off the common area. (We arrived on the day Paris temp reached 107 F!)
