The apartment was as advertised. We were two moms with our 16 year old daughters in Paris for sightseeing and this apartment was a haven to return to after a long day of sightseeing. The neighborhood was nice and felt safe. There is a metro station right out in front of the apartment building entrance. There are nearby restaurants, groceries, etc. We all had plenty of space and were comfortable. The kitchen was great and the terrace was spectacular. Check in and out was easy.
