The location is great being so close to the Louvre and the Ile de la Cite. The apartment is very close to the Pont Neuf Metro station. It is near many cafes and restaurants on the Quai du Louvre and the Rue de Rivoli. It is well maintained and Richard has many art pieces and books to see in the place. Be aware that it is a fourth floor walk up (that's five stories) with a charming, but an old narrow spiral staircase. Also, there is the great view of Eglise Saint Germain l'Auxerrois. The church bells chime in the morning and through the day. The apartment is an excellent value for the traveler needing a studio apartment.
