What a wonderful apartment in one of the best locations in Paris!! It is located on a lively neighborhood, yet the apartment is quiet as it faces a beautiful courtyard in the back of the building. There is occasional daytime noise from a restaurant kitchen below which was not a problem. The configuration of the space is very unusual as it is long and narrow, with the living area and kitchen being around two meters wide. The entry area serves as a dining/work area with a gorgeous rounded window facing the courtyard. The space has one caveat: There are six steps to the bathroom which can be quite dangerous as there is no railing. I LOVED being in this wonderful apartment and highly recommend it. A magical space in the heart of Paris.
