Awesome location! I am originally from Paris and currently live in Nashville, TN. I was visiting Paris and was looking for a central place where I could have an extra bed. This apartment was perfect. It has been completely renovated and is light. It is spacious for 3 people. You can walk everywhere... Opera, le Louvre, le Marais or Montmartre. And if you don't feel like walking you cannot beat the public transport around the apartment...many buses and subway stations. Agnes has been a great host. She is very responsive. Everything was smooth. The area is amazing...if you are looking for a true parisian experience, I recommend this apartment...and yes 5th floor, no elevator...I think it is part of the parisian experience!
