I'll start by saying we my family would love to return to this flat on our next Paris visit. The place was immaculately clean and well appointed with anything we might have needed. The neighborhood was the stuff of Parisian dreams. My children did not want to leave Paris. We were within 1.5 blocks of 4 different Metro lines to take us anywhere in Paris. The neighborhood itself was so vibrant and alive, full of cafes and boulangeries (walked for baguette each morning to a different one, each 5 minutes or fewer away) and wine bars and anything you might want from your stay in Paris. Also within walking distance to the lively Les Halles neighborhood, Saint Chapelle/Notre Dame, and the river. We really cannot say enough good things about this apartment and our stay in Paris. Eric, our onsite host, was very friendly and very invested in our good time. He was easy to contact and quick to respond. The street was a bit loud at night, but if you have a problem with that, you should stay further out in Paris...this vibrancy is what we were looking for.
