Our extended family of 10 stayed in the apartment for a week over Christmas and loved it! The location is absolutely perfect - a quick walk to Notre Dame, great restaurants and shopping, two metro stops and multiple bus stops. The spacious living quarters with individual temperature controls, the hot showers and hairdryers, the comfortable sizable beds and basic kitchen amenities made for a wonderful stay. We definitely recommend it and plan to return! I don't know what it would be like to rent only half of the apartment (two or three bedrooms) and share the other half, as we did not do that, given the size of our group. But having the entire flat was convenient and excellent.
