A nice apartment in a bustling area of Paris. We really liked being able to open the doors and sit out on the porch and watch everyone walk and bike by. Be aware, this not a quaint area, it's a busy thoroughfare with lots of traffic and street noise all night long. With the doors closed it's quiet, but I wouldn't expect to sleep with the windows open. Bedrooms are a tight fit, but have comfortable beds. No issues with cleanliness in the apartment or in the building itself. There's only one set of keys, which makes it difficult to coordinate getting into the building since you can't come and go separately or just use a key code.
