The gentleman that meets you to give you the key is very kind and helpful. With Paris traffic, it's difficult to give an exact arrival time when you're traveling, but he waited for us without a problem. The location is definitely in the middle of a lot of great activity, we loved wandering around discovering the area, but be aware you can't be dropped off or picked up right next to the apartment, so you'll have to walk a little ways with your luggage. The apartment itself is a little smaller than it seemed in the pictures, but it was very clean. There were two main issues, one is that you have to use the key to lock/unlock the door from the outside and the inside , so if one person leaves with the key, the other person can't get out, which is a safety hazard. Also, the apartment was very warm and stuffy, which made no sense, as it was very cold outside and we weren't using any heating. There are only two small windows next to the front door, which have no screens so you can't leave them open. Every time we came back to the apartment it was so uncomfortable we would have to leave the front door wide open with the fan blowing air into the apartment for a while to cool it down enough that we could sleep. We really couldn't figure out why it was so warm in the apartment when it was so nice and cool outside.
