This is truly a great apartment on all levels. Firstly the location is very central to all major attractions. Was a short walk to Louvre, Garnier Opera house and Galeries Lafayette. The nearest Metro is a 3 min walk. The surrounding area is beautiful with great cafes and restaurants. After a long day of sightseeing its great not to have to walk far for dinner options. The area is very quiet at night and lively during the day. We experience two very hot days in Paris with temp above 32 degrees and surprisingly the apartment was cool when we arrived back in the afternoon. The apartment itself is very spacious and everything is of such good quality. The interior is modern and yet you still get the feeling that you are in Paris. The sofa-bed was extremely comfortable.
We had an unfortunate experience on the train from the airport, but Penelope waited until we reached the apartment and made sure we know where everything is and how it worked. She kept in contact the first few days to make sure we were sorted.
Definitely recommend this apartment and host!
