The title says it all as this really is a great location, very close to the Seine and many of the major attractions, as well as a huge selection of shops, bars and restaurants. Even so, the apartment is very peaceful due to the layout of the building.
The apartment is full of character and a sense of history. It's on the small side, which should be expected for this central location. I've given 4 stars rather than 5 as I found the cramped shower enclosure a daily challenge, but this shouldn't put you off if location is top of your wish list as you can't have everything without spending a deal more and for many the shower will not be an issue.
Sonya and her daughter Lucy were great hosts and very easy to communicate with.
I would certainly recommend this listing if you are looking for a charming apartment in a perfect location.
