The apartment is fantastic - it has everything you need and a wonderful host. There are at least 2 metro stations within 5 minutes' walk, a great restaurant downstairs and shops around the corner. The Marché des Enfants Rouges is nearby, as well as a funky cocktail bar called The Little Red Door. Highly recommended for anyone going to Paris - don't waste money on a hotel when you can have such a brilliant local experience here!
