The location of the apartment is very good being right on the square with lots of bars and restaurants close by. The area is always busy although no noise can be heard from the apartment. It’s only a short walk to the Pantheon and the river and other attractions are easily reached on foot through the lovely streets, Or walk to a nearby metro.
The apartment is as described and excellent for a short stay in Paris although it would benefit from a little TLC throughout. The terrace and yard outside needs some attention which would make it a really lovely space and little things like at least 2 wine glasses and a bread knife would make your stay more special.
That said Laurent was the perfect host with lots of suggestions and his welcome made up for any negatives I might have.
The apartment was simply there to change and sleep and therefore we really enjoyed our visit.
