We loved this apartment! The location is really wonderful - Canal Saint Martin is very picturesque, and we liked being in a true Parisian neighborhood with hip restaurants and coffee shops. We walked with our three children to many city sights, but the Metro station is also nearby. The apartment is on the small side for a family of five, which we expected based on the description, but it worked for us. It was very easy to communicate with Charles, and we knew exactly how to access the apartment and leave it upon checking out. We highly recommend staying in this apartment! Also, we took Charles up on the offer to have private transportation to and from the airport, and it made our trip that much more relaxing! I relished not having to drag three kids and luggage onto the Metro.
