The main attraction here is location and view. Never got tired of looking out the window and seeing Notre Dame. And just a couple steps from the river with plenty of markets and restaurants around. As many have already stated, the stairs/elevator are...”interesting”. If viewed with the mindset of an adventure, which is what you are on, then all is well. If viewed with a negative mindset, you may be frustrated. Our suitcases are convertible to backpacks, which makes long, narrow stairs a bit more easy vs a traditional suitcase. And the exercise is always welcome. The kitchen is a bit limited in size but gets the job done.
