The place was very private and quiet and peaceful despite being right off of a busy street. Entry to gate by code then the apartment is ground level to the right, our host greeted us, showed us the amenities and kindly offered travel advice as well as their phone number if we had any questions or needed any help. The host also checked in on us pretty regularly to see how we were doing and how our stay is going. Very good location near to a metro station, and many good restaurants, and still in the city limits as well (zones 1-3). Highly recommend staying here for anyone looking to book a trip to Paris!
