We chose this place for its location and the fact that it has 2 queen-sized beds (one is a sofa-bed). We immensely enjoyed staying at this historical building at close proximity to Louvre, Musee d'Orsay, and most of the other important attractions. One thing that was not exactly up to par were the towels. I believe they were not washed or dried properly and there was a pungent mildew/moldy smell to them. Not sure if this is a constant occurrence or if it was just a single case, either way, make sure you pack your own towels. We were a little inconvenienced by the very sheer curtains on the window, so keep this in mind if you are looking for a lot of privacy. Sofia and her husband must be extremely busy because only this could explain their late responses. Make sure you contact them way in advance and set up an exact time of check-in. Maybe ask for the husband's number as well before you get there as having two contacts is better than one. Location and the tiny elevators made up for everything else. I would still recommend staying here as long as you take precautions.
