Fantastic place in Paris. Excellent for a family, spacious, convenient, well-appointed, and simply but pleasantly decorated. It wasn't immediately obvious to me from previous reviewers: this is a ground-level apartment (no stairs) facing an internal courtyard. This means that you may have someone walking in front of the windows very infrequently but as it doesn't face the street foot traffic is not a problem. As the apartment is well lit during the day, you can keep the day blinds down and it didn't feel dark at all. Even if you kept them up, foot traffic in front of the unit is NOT an issue. If you have substantial luggage, avoiding stairs with no lift (as is the case with most flats in central Paris) is a key USP here. Nazeem was very helpful and even assisted in arranging transportation to the airport. At least one reviewer mentioned that it was difficult to load and unload from a taxi, which concerned me, but this was not our experience at all. Yes, this is in the middle of the embassy district and there is constant police presence but there was no problem for our taxi to park on the side, you won't block traffic. Metro station two blocks away, playground two blocks way, Bon Marche three blocks away, location is very good although quieter than the "hottest" part of SGDP (which to me is actually an advantage as it was peaceful at night, and yet is is a short walk to those places anyway). I would happily recommend this place and would certainly stay there again. Thanks Yankel and Nazeem!
