the neighborhood the apartment is located in is absolutely wonderful with great cafes and restaurants and centrally located to transportation and seeing Paris! The apartment was lovely with a well stocked kitchen and comfy beds and a fantastic shower. It was very quiet at night as is located in a courtyard off the street. Do note that it is on the ground floor (great for not having to haul bags up the stairs) but it is across the courtyard from a highend sports club and there are people outside of the windows during the day coming and going. It was a great little pied-a-terre to have in Paris!
