This apartment is a wow. I read the reviews before I booked, and it was all true. Here is what I particularly loved. As an over 55 traveller with a bad back, the bed is always a concern when staying in a new place. This apartment has an excellent bed in that regard, perfect firmness - it felt like the bed in a higher end hotel. The apartment has great water pressure and heat, so expect a great hot shower after a day hiking around paris. Marie left us Nespresso pods so we drank great coffee at home. The location is great as well. It is close to the main tourist destinations, but its not precisely in a tourist area. Local restaurants were amazing and mostly filled with Paris residents which gives a more authentic experience some of the more tourism oriented areas. There is a pastry shop and general store just around the corner and a big market just up the street. I had a great time in Paris, and you cant go wrong with this apartment.
