I would give this place 5 stars for the location alone, but it's also worth noting that the host was very friendly, courteous and helpful. He responded quickly - especially to texts once we had his number - and he spoke English quite well. This is a cozy apartment with a great location, especially if you enjoy walking around the city, as we do. You are within a mile of the river, the Ile de la cite, Norte Dame, the Louvre, etc., and there are many great restaurants and bars in the neighborhood. We felt very lucky to have found this place!
