The location was the best we could have asked for. Walking distance to everything you'd want to see ( Latin Quarter, Louvre, Notre Dame, etc) and access to cafes, grocery stores, etc. It was great to have a washer, the water temperature and pressure in the shower was great, and we felt safe and secure in our neighborhood and apartment. The Metro/RER is literally right outside the door, and Nicholas was easy to access and thoroughly goes over everything with you. It was also very quiet, which is a plus. I would say the bed situation was not ideal; it is lofted, with a very small space to crawl into and sleep (if you're small, it may not be a huge deal, but you would have a hard time sitting up in bed). The ladder to get up to the loft was sturdy, but the rungs/steps were uncomfortable and very uncomfortable to climb up (the ladder is meant to be completely vertical, not at an angle). Other than that, we were pleased with everything!!! Forgot to mention that the fridge worked well, lots of room to cook and closet space to store clothes. For the price, a very good deal! Would definitely stay here again.
