The flat is in a perfectly central part of Paris. On a nice day, you could walk to all the famous tourist sites, but it's also really near the metro. Paris itself doesn't seem to believe in air conditioning, but a nice shower and a big window helped in the heat wave we were in. Hosts were kind and considerate, helpful, not pushy, really couldn't have asked for more. They noticed we were going to bed early, so they wrapped up with their friends so it would be quiet. Recommended!
