The apartment was in a great location! Many great restaurants and the metro is so close by. The Pere Lachaise is walking distance too! The St. Martin canal is very pretty with all the parks and the bridges. We loved the apartment! It was the perfect size for the two of us. Helpful hint to travelers: Do not bring large luggage! You can travel easier on the metro to the airport and the steps to the apartment in the building are steep and small. We loved Paris and cannot wait to come back!!
