Great location. Less than 10 mins from gare de l'est train station and 30mins by taxi or public trans to the Eiffel Tower. The street where the place is located is on a 1way and my uber drivers got confused. At night there are a few restaurants right next to the apartment and during the day a flee market set up on the middle sidewalk. The apartment is small. But I'm learning that's how places are in Paris. It is like a loft.
