We spent 3 nights at this cozy apartment and had a wonderful time! It is a very authentic feeling place to stay, and had everything we needed for a visit to Paris. The location is superb, we really enjoyed being in the Sorbonne/Pantheon area, but there was no issues with noise from the street since the windows face a courtyard. The only noises are typical apartment noises from the hallway. The bed/couch Murphy bed design worked really well, and we were surprised to say that the couch was very comfortable for it's size! We definitely appreciated being able to pack away the bed to get more space and it was very simple and easy to do and required no strength. The kitchen was wonderful, the shower was comfortably sized, had hot water and had high water pressure which is a trifecta that has been rare for us in Paris! The courtyard design made it feel very safe. There is a combination washer/dryer + drying racks for use. Additionally, we were left many snacks and things to use with cooking such as oil and salt. Our hosts were very generous in accommodating us and we really appreciated it!
