This apartment (really a room) was really great for my needs, traveling alone, and the location cannot be beat! It is a very short walk to the Center Pompidou and the Louvre and Notre Dame is not far away. The Eiffel Tower is a bit of a walk but walking along the Seine, I did not mind it, even in the rain. :) The area was great as well with many restaurants in the Marais district. The apartment is directly across the street from the Etienne Marcel metro stop and only a block or two from the station that takes you directly to Charles de Gaulle airport so getting there by train (Gare du Nord station) or air is very easy and convenient. The building is an old historic one and the apartment is on the top level but the small elevator within the stairwell really adds character to the place. The window is a skylight with a view of Montmartre and the rooftops of Paris, very charming! I would definitely stay here again if traveling alone. The bed is a twin but can be expanded to accommodate two people but this place really is ideal for one person who simply needs a place to sleep. Ab was very helpful showing how to use everything in the place and he even made sure to bring me more coffee when I was there since it was running low. Overall, a really good experience and the value is the place can't be beat!
