We had a great 6-week stay at Francois's apartment. It's really all about location, location, location. There are numerous subway lines within a 5-10 minute walk, and bus stops right at the doorstep. There must be 100 restaurants/bars within a few blocks' radius. The apartment overlooks the Seine and we spent countless hours sitting in front of the lovely large windows just watching the boats, buses and crowds go by. The apartment is much larger than we had anticipated with an amazing amount of closet space. The master bath is large and very comfortable, the second one a little smaller. The kitchen is useable, we cooked a lot of meals in it, although it could be better equipped. Because of its location directly on the quai, it is extremely noisy, especially with the windows open. With the windows closed you don't notice it as much, although I can imagine it would get pretty warm in mid-summer (we were there from May 1 - June 12). All in all, would definitely stay again. We've been gone only a couple days and I already miss the view!!!
