Everything about securing and staying at this apartment was easy and wonderful. The flat is in a great location; 2 metro stations in the immediate vicinity, a number of bistros, cafes, restaurants, and takeaway eateries are extremely close by. A one mile walk puts you at the Louvre. One thing to be aware of...the flat is on the third floor of a building with no elevator. Every day is leg day. It wasn’t too bad, but at the end of the day those three flights of stairs seem endless. On the other hand, a major plus is that there is little to no noise from the street below, or any of the apartments around. It was blessedly silent.
The apartment itself is incredibly efficiently arranged. There is room to sleep 6 people, but that could be tight and close quarters. The bathroom arrangement can help with that; the shower and a sink are in one room and the toilet and a small sink are in another, so there is opportunity for the bathroom to not be tied up completely. There is a lot of storage space. The kitchen is well equipped and stocked, the living area has a fold out sofa bed, a large television, and even a small library of fiction and books about Paris.
There were fans to be used if needed, an easy to understand heating system, and a packable crib stored away. The beds were comfortable and the linens were very nice.
Arno provided some great tips on restaurants and could probably answer any question you put to him about sightseeing.
We would stay here again in a heartbeat; it was a perfect component of our vacation.
