First of all, the location is great. I really enjoyed the 15th - the apartment is very convenient to the metro, grocery stores and a great outdoor cafe around the corner that is open late. Seeing the Eiffel Tower in front of you as you walk to the Metro is a nice touch as well. The apartment building has an elevator and a washer/DRYER, which is rare (in my experience) for Paris. There is a nice deck with plenty of room if you'd like to get outside. The apartment was great value, but with value means that there aren't any "extra touches". The place was pretty clean and has great water pressure and a nice shower, but little odds and ends seemed broken or a bit rickety - nothing that takes away from it being a perfectly acceptable place to stay. Check in / check out was easy and convenient. Certainly opened my eyes to a great part of the city and will plan to stay there or in the area when I'm back again in town.
