This was a lovely and comfortable little apartment, with lots of character and a charming terrace overlooking a picturesque street. The location was fabulous for exploring Paris on foot or by Metro while also feeling part of a real neighborhood. It was pretty much perfect for our needs as a couple traveling with our teen-aged daughter. The lack of air conditioning or fans was not an issue in April, though we imagine it may be in the summer. One small drawback, at least for light sleepers, was intermittent street noise during the night (even with the windows closed), apparently from roving bands of revelers, although this may be hard to avoid anywhere in the city. Other very minor issues were a non-functioning hallway light switch and a coffeemaker we could not figure out how to work (even with instructions). We got coffee from the excellent boulangerie around the corner. Overall, this was a wonderful place to stay and a great deal.
