We were a family of 7 and the apartment fit us all comfortably. There are plenty of supermarkets and restaurants in the area, and fresh bread down the street. There is also a train station 1 block away that takes us to the Eiffel Tower, and usually one more transfer was enough to take us anywhere else! The kitchen was great and with the good weather we were all able to fit and eat at the outdoor garden which was fun. We had to carefully manage using the one bathroom amongst us 7 but we figured it. This apartment was exactly what we needed to comfortably tour Paris as a big group.
