The perfect Parisian apartment! It was cozy but well planned out and it had everything we could need -- coffee setup; a small kitchen with a refrigerator, stove, and plenty of plates, cups, and utensils; modern bathroom with lots of hot water, soap, shampoo, hair dryer, big towels, and a small washing machine (which worked perfectly!); a closet with mirrored doors featuring hangers, shelves, drying rack, and ironing board; comfortable bed with nice pillows; and fast WiFi.
Like just about everywhere in Paris, there is no air conditioning, but it has two big windows and a quiet fan. The building is mostly in the shade so it was nice and cool throughout the day and night. We were very comfortable.
Perfect location in la Marais, with lots of shops, restaurants, cafes and boulangeries in every direction. Walking distance to several metro stations and main attractions like Centre Pompidou, Les Halles, and Rue Rivoli. It's a lively area with activities both day and night.
Important for others, especially Americans -- the apartment is on the second level which means it is two floors above street level. The stairs are narrow and go up in a spiral but they are well lit and easy to navigate.
We recommend this apartment to others and would love to come back and stay here again!
