This apartment is truly luminous and manifests a beautiful, positive energy. Decorated in a very personal way with inspiring colors, art books, and intriguing prints, this compact apartment creates a unique and special impression. Large skylights look out on a quiet courtyard offering both ample fresh air and sense of nature in the city. My 27 year old daughter and I found the apartment and it's location on a quiet side street in the Marias absolutely perfect. We had no trouble with low head height of the sleeping loft (or the steep steps) but others with balance issues or small children would not find this as ideal as we did. That said, if I had my own little apartment in Paris, I'd love one like this.
