This is a newly renovated apt within a French old building with lots of charms. The neighborhood, which reminded me of a cross between Soho and West Village, is wonderfully hip and cool with tons of shopping, restaurants, cafes, and walking distance to many sights that are less touristy. The apt was clean, bright, modern, with a fully equipped kitchen and wonderful rain-like shower (great water pressure); plus, the host and her brother were super responsive and helpful. I wish I had more time in Paris to stay in this lovely apt and discover the neighborhood.
