We found the apartment easily and then called the host who came to the entryway door to meet us. She handed us the key and hurriedly told us how to get to the apartment and then walked away. We tried to open the big entryway door using the key and didn't realize there was a key fob that would open the door. Fortunately, she turned around and noticed our attempts, came back and showed us how to open the door and then led us to the apartment instead of leaving us to figure it out on our own. She did not seem to want to be there and left us immediately after showing us to the apartment door. The apartment sits on a very busy street and the traffic noise was unexpected but is only heard from the living room and not the bedroom, which sits further back. We found the bed in the bedroom to be somewhat hard and the pillows were flat. The rooms were clean and tidy. Adding a couple of extra pillows would make the sleeping arrangements more comfortable. My daughter really liked the sofabed, however, which was surprisingly very comfortable! She used earplugs and slept great in the living room! The towels are very stiff and hard at first, possibly due to the detergent they are washed with. Once warmed up on the towel warmer, they softened up, though. This apartment is in a safe neighborhood, conveniently close to the Ile Saint Louis. It is in a residential area that is 5-10 minutes walk from a few restaurants, a grocery store, and pharmacy. We had an excellent dinner around the corner at Chez Margot the night we arrived.
