The apartment is spacious, modern and very clean. An Uber driver said to us "you are right in the heart of Paris". We were met at checkin as soon as we arrived and given a tour of the apartment and provided with useful information about the area. The Louvre, Notre Dame, Le Marais are all a 15-20 min walk. Only a few minutes walk to 2 metro stops. Monoprix market around the corner. Cafes, boulangeries, patisseries, restaurants in every direction, few minutes walk to Rue Montorgueil, where we spent many evenings. Kitchen is fully stocked, and we used the convenient dishwasher and the washer/dryer. Detergent was kindly provided. Windows on both sides can be opened for a nice cool breeze on a warm day. Apartment is secure behind a main gate and separate building door. A tiny elevator helps get the luggage up and down, but we usually took the stairs. The apartment was a nice quiet oasis away from the hustle and bustle of the street. Glad we chose an apartment that does not overlook the street as the streets remain quite lively late into the night. As for the smell some of noted, we only noticed this in the front bathroom. We just left the front windows open during the day. It did not affect our stay, but were glad that other reviewers made note of it. The owners have a very responsive team and they came out right away when we thought the refrigerator broke, but it turned out to be user error. We were very apologetic about that but they were very kind about it. Definitely recommend this apartment and would stay here again.
