This apartment is in such a fantastic location. We were able to walk from Gare de Lyon easily with our luggage. The marché d'aligre is just around the corner along with a couple of supermarkets. Also a great choice of patisseries & places to eat, with Bastille & the Marais an easy 15-20 min walk away. The apartment was fine for the two of us, a main bedroom downstairs & an office-type bedsit upstairs. This upstairs space would be a tight squeeze with luggage if there were two people using it. The large windows in the apartment were wonderful as they let in plenty of light & it was easy to cool down the apartment when we returned from our days exploring Paris. Overall we really enjoyed our stay there but we were only 2 not sure how it would go with 4 adults.
