This is a lovely apartment. It is bright, clean and comfortable. Nearby are groceries, bakeries, restaurants and easy walking access to the different transit systems. In about thirty minutes we were downtown Paris or to Palace of Versailles. Having a stocked kitchen and washer/dryer meant we were able to pack light (washing clothes - make sure to take detergent or can make local purchase) and enjoy home cooked meals with local produce/meat/cheese in addition to dining at the lively cafes all over Paris. We started our days with baked goods purchased just up the street and finished our days peeking out the windows to see the Eiffel Tower twinkling in the night sky. We visited the Palace of Versailles, Eiffel Tower, Sorbonne, Catacombs, Louvre, Arc de Triomph, Champs Elysees, Notre Dam, Les Invalides, several fantastic shopping districts all easily accessed in a weeks time and collapsed exhausted every night in our lovely apartment. We did not take a boat tour as we had planned feeling completely satisfied watching the Seine traffic from our apartment window each morning and night. If we are fortunate enough to return to Paris we would rent this apartment again, especially since Isadora offers a return discount!
