This apartment is in a great location, easy to walk to most destinations. We did use the kitchen, cooked breakfast every day. There is an organic produce market across the street, a coffee shop on the corner and little cafe 1/2 a block down with daily fresh bread and pastries. We did use the tickets for the Seine river cruise, was a definite highlight of the trip and something we would not normally do. This apartment is a sweet little find in Paris and I recommend it to families traveling with kids. The host was easy to communicate with and always responded quickly. I will definitely stay in this apartment again. Thank you for making our vacation comfortable and easy!
