We had a wonderful 10 day stay with two children, age 3 and 8. We live in the USA now but used to live in Paris so we knew the area well. Lots of shopping and restaurants around. Lively and fun. While the living and dining area overlook a busy boulevard, the bedrooms are tucked in the back of the apartment which was perfectly quiet. Overall, the apartment was not noisy at all. It was very clean, well appointed and the host was fantastic. We had a small issue with the toilet on day 2 which she took care of immediately. Very professional. We would absolutely stay here again!
