Not knowing anything about Paris, we weren't sure where to stay for our 6 day vacation. This apartment turned out to be perfect! We walked everywhere - not surprising, it is Paris after all. I was a little concerned about the size of the place, but every inch is efficiently used that it seems larger than it is. And we didn't spend a lot of time in the place just hanging around so more space would have been wasted on us. I was amazed at the windows - when closed you couldn't hear any noise from the street below. The other benefit of this apartment is that there are so many restaurants nearby - in any directions. It is a little tricky finding the street but Roth provided us with excellent directions. All in all - a wonderful place for our 1st trip to Paris!
