Good location in the 1st arrondissement. The apartment is just how it appears on the pictures, perhaps a bit smaller because the pictures always make the rooms look larger than they really are. The only issue was the heat. Because it's on the fourth floor (and no elevator), the apartment gets really hot and it lacks air circulation even when you open the windows. We had to leave the portable fan they provided on in the bedroom to sleep. Other than that the apartment is great because it had everything we needed - fully equipped kitchen with microwave, dishwasher, oven, fridge (no freezer), spices, silverware/cookware + washer/drying rack + TV + cleaning equipment + closet with hangers + towels/extra sheets. It's close to two metro stations which take you to just about everywhere in Paris. It's also fairly quiet at night (except sometimes there was a loud dog barking in the morning). The nightlife around the area is lacking, so maybe stay somewhere else if that's what you're looking for. There are restaurants, banks, and markets within walking distance (as well as museums, parks, and other tourist attractions), but know that it is very crowded because it's touristy in the first arrondissement. It was good to stay there for my first time in Paris because it was central to everywhere I visited. However I might not stay there the next time I'm in Paris because I would be more interested to stay somewhere with more nightlife, more locals and fewer tourists, and a cooler house if i go in the summer.
