The flat has a wonderful terrasse which for us provided a fantastic view of Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter, and the Montparnasse tower. As we'd visited in the heart of a heat wave, the East(ish) facing ensured it was in the much needed shade in the afternoon/evening, providing a great respite from the heat and a lovely spot to enjoy winding down from the day's sightseeing. The fans provided and open windows on both sides of the flat with a cross breeze also ensured a cool night's sleep in the heat.
The location is ideally located by the Metro, with only a short walk to one of two stations, with a direct line to the Eiffel tower, Musea D'Orsay, and the rest of Paris.
The flat itself provided ample space for our group of 6, with the kids sharing a room and a lovely sitting room and dining area.
