The apartment is like an art gallery. Sandrine gave us many valuable recommendations which made our stay in Paris amazing. Because this is a historic building, you are expected not to make too much noise. The location is fantastic! We found that Museum of Victor Hugo is right next door. The building is surrounding by nice restaurants, art galleries, small but stylish shops, etc. Our only issues with the apartment is the water pressure seems not high enough and the stairs in the apartment is on the narrow and small side. So if you have very young kids, you may want to think twice before you book. But after all it is a historic building so these should be expected. Otherwise, it is perfect!
