We have been to Paris many times and this is one of the best places to stay. We wish we had stayed longer. The apartment had everything we needed - including a washing machine. The apartment also had lots of nice touches - paintings, furniture, etc. It is also in a great location - the 5th. Nearby are bistros, outside markets, restaurants and shopping. Other places include Rue Mouffetard, Jardin des Plantes and more. This apartment is an ideal place for a Paris visit.
