Our party quickly fell in love with the flat, it was comfortable and clean and had all we needed, lots of dining, ease metro access, even Starbucks quite close which was a nice little piece of home comfort to us. it's fair to warn that the stairs are intimidating to North Americans but through our stay we all improved our stamina and likely our leg muscles. but the spiral staircase and the very much "in paris" feel was authentic and romantic and I wish we could have stayed longer.
