This cozy apartment is located in the heart of Le Marais and puts you about midway between the Centre Georges Pompidou and the Picasso Museum. It's also a nice walk to the Louvre but you might want to save your feet because the Louvre is a city unto itself. Le Maris is a vibrant neighborhood with many places to shop, eat and drink and one can spend a great deal of time just exploring this diverse neighborhood. The apartment itself is small but contains everything you would need if you're looking to be out and about and just need a place to sleep and shower--who wants to cook in anyway? You're in Paris! Go out to eat. However there is a microwave and a cooktop in the unit if you're inclined to cook. Me? This was my first trip to Paris so there was no way I was doing any cooking! You'll sleep on a sofabed in the main room but do not fear; this sofa bed is comfy both as a bed and as a sofa. There is also a sleeping loft but the loft itself is best left for kids or very small framed adults since the stairway up is narrow and steep and the opening is small. Once up there though there is a sky light, a large television and a fullsize mattress with cozy bed linens. There is also a large TV downstairs. The unit is also very secure. The entry is at ground level and off of a courtyard which is accessible from the street by entering an alphanumeric code at the steel gate--thus you don't have to worry about safety. I was also greeted with chocolates and a nice bottle of champaigne from the host, which was a nice touch and very generous. Overall I would stay here again and would recommend this unit for a single person or a couple.
