Great location within easy walk of RER C and Metro line 3 as well as several bus stops. Nice neighborhood out of the tourist cluster with many restaurants and cafes as well as a great neighborhood bakery. Do yourself a favor and get some macrons at Le Jardin Sucre as well. Apartment has a nice touch of Hausmannian character and was very comfortable for 4 as well as separate beds for the kids. We did not cook very much while there but aside from the lack of prep area, everything was available to do so. Herve was very communicative and easy to reach. Only reason I did not give 5 stars is some items that were not cleaned up from the previous occupant and some may find the street noise to be a problem if the windows are open. Definitely better than staying at a hotel especially if you want to live like a Parisian.
