I was not prepared for this place to be better than it was listed. It felt like the quintessential Parisian apartment. I spent time starring out of the windows in thinking how very Paris the place was. I intentionally chose the neighborhood and it was better than I expected. It said close to Galleries Lafayette and it was truly that. It was close enough that the walk was very short, but far enough that there was no holiday traffic. I would not hesitate to either book again or recommend it.
