This apt was fairly comfortable. Kitchen was easy to manage. Windows on one side facing the street allowed pleasant cool air in the evenings. However, the open windows did bring in some street noises in the late everning to early morning hours. We can see how this is an ideal place for younger couples. However, for a middle aged couple like ourselves with a teenager, there were some challenges to the location and feel of this neighborhood. Pierre was a very accomodating and welcoming host.
