We stayed in this apartment for 10 days and found it both cozy and unique. The apartment has a nice kitchen and we used it to eat in several times during our stay. The spiral staircase was tricky to negotiate the first couple of times but we got used to it. I would say that if you are over 6ft tall that you would find aspects of the apartment challenging as there is some low ceilings and obstacles. We loved the location because we were close to three different metro lines, taxi stand, and many bakeries, boucheries, grocery stores but still in a more peaceful and relaxed part of Paris. We would happily stay at Marc's place again.
