From the moment we arrived we felt we picked the perfect place. The building manager greeted us and explained EVERYTHING. The apartment is on the ground floor which meant no lifting all our luggage up flights of stairs. There is a main door to the street, and the entrance to the apartment is inside the courtyard so it is nice and quiet. You are really in the heart of Paris in one of the best parts of town. Paul & Marie even set up a baby crib for our 1 1/2 yr old! We hope next time we travel to Paris this apartment is available!!
