This apartment is perfect to walk to most highlights you would want to visit in Paris and the metro is close by for those that are further away. The Marais district is a lively, happening place with lots of restaurants, nightlife, shops to purchase your own food for meals in. The apartment doesn’t have A/C but with the windows open there is a lovely cross breeze that kept the apartment cool even in the very warm weather week we were there. Having two shower and sink areas in the apartment was great! The 4 flights of stairs to the apartment were not difficult to manage if you are in reasonable walking shape. I would highly recommend this apartment for your stay in Paris!
