The apartment of Mari is perfectly located in walking distance to the city center and lot's of restaurants. We enjoyed our time in Paros and Parikia is definitely the perfect place to stay to discover the island. Regarding the apartment it should be said that it's located next to one of the main roads and quite loud at day and nighttime, which makes it hard to enjoy the nice balcony and view. So don't forget your earplugs. ;) Another point is the tiny bathroom with an open shower, which makes it impossible to not flood the bathroom everytime you shower.
