If you are looking for the true Parisian apartment experience, Corto's place is it. Up 6 flights in the lift, with a view of Notre Dame as you go, then 1 flight of the quaintest stairs - which Corto will help traverse with your bags, to a studio loft overlooking the surrounding buildings and the tip of the Eiffel Tower in the distance. It is not luxurious, but is comfortable and has loads of character. We enjoyed our 2 nights here while exploring Paris. It is a perfect location to view all the key sights and is surrounded by so many great value restaurants and way too many patisseries!! We also felt completely safe wandering the neighbourhood during all hours.
