This location simply cannot be beat. The apartment is located towards the back end of a nice and quiet courtyard, but when you go out the security gate and through the large wooden doors (very secure- you need a code to open), you are in the heart of the most lovely Parisian neighborhood, packed with restaurants, cafes, bakeries, fromageries, a little supermarket. So picturesque! It was fun to leave the courtyard and be instantly in the midst of it all. The street allows cars but so many pedestrians walk in the street that hardly any cars bother driving down it. Despite all the street life, we didn’t hear anything at night, even with windows cracked! We walked to many sites from the apartment and multiple metro stops are very close by as well. The apartment is truly tiny, but Juan was very up front about this and my teenage daughter and I managed fine. You won’t want to stay indoors anyhow! Having the mini kitchen was a plus, and the bathroom and kitchen fixtures are nice quality. Check in was smooth (someone from concierge met us with a key and went over everything) and Juan was very communicative and helpful. I’d recommend this place for no more than two people without tons of luggage. We had two carry on size bags and were able to stow them away in cupboard. All in all I was happy with the apartment.
