My adult son and I had a lovely stay. The apartment is unusually spacious for Paris, with plenty of room to spread out--it would suit two or three friends as well as a family. It is also unusually quiet, despite being on a main thoroughfare, which my son especially appreciated since he had to work for several hours each day (WiFi connection is excellent). The apartment is very well equipped (I did contribute a tea towel to the kitchen because there were none). The only downside for me was that the bed in the children's room, where I slept, was very uncomfortable for an older, arthritic person (I gave the lovely master bedroom to my son because he's so much bigger than I am). The neighborhood is the opposite of touristy, which makes it interesting in another way--there are lots of local restaurants and cafes nearby, everything from Breton specialities to Kurdish durum to Tibetan momos, and a superb market (Marche d'Aligre), which you must visit even if you don't plan to cook much: it's a feast for the eyes, too. Public transportation (bus, metro) is nearby and convenient for visiting the more touristic parts of the city. We were warmly welcomed by the manager, who lives in the building and so is available if any problems arise. A perfect place to stay in a vibrant Parisian neighborhood.
