Our flight was late, but Alix was waiting for us when we arrived. She provided helpful recommendations about the area and was available to assist us throughout the trip. The apartment is on a street with a number of bars, so it can get busy at night, especially later in the week, but the apartment stayed quiet because it is on the inside of a small courtyard. It's a cozy apartment, but was perfect for what we needed...a comfortable home base to explore Paris. Close to the metro and a number of shops and markets. We would stay here again!
