Located in a convenient and safe neighborhood. It was great seeing the Arc de Triumph every day when coming and going to explore Paris. A few good restaurants, bakeries and stores located in a 2-3 block radius.

The primary bed is comfortable, the sofa bed not so much - extremely noisy and springs poke you. There was plenty of room to store our things with the large closet.

Bathroom had great water pressure and hot water, would be nice though if there was a shower curtain so you prevent spray back in the rest of the bathroom. There's also a washer and "dryer" in the bathroom. We couldn't get the dryer to dry anything so clothes ended up needing to be air dried but it wasn't too difficult to find space around the apartment to dry your clothes. There wasn't any detergent so you'll need to go to Monoprix to buy some.

Large windows let in great light. If we weren't traveling with little children, it would have been great to leave them open all the time - not safe at all though to leave them open if you have little kids.

In France this is considered a 3rd story apartment but in US terms, we consider this a 4th story apartment - prepare yourself for the 60 steps up and 60 steps down on the spiral staircase if you realized you forgot something upstairs.

There's a grumpy old man that I assume serves something similar to the role of an apartment 'super' who doesn't speak any English and will pester you quite often as you're coming and going making sure you understand the intricacies of his trash/recycling system.

Overall, the apartment served my family well (myself, my wife, a 3 year old and a 1 year old) for the 11 days we spent there. I don't think I would necessarily stay there again with children but if it was 2-4 adults, it would be a perfect place to stay while exploring Paris.
