We could tell from the pictures that the living area of this unit was small, and we were not mistaken. However, the bedrooms were spacious, the bathrooms immaculate and there is a full kitchen if you want to cook. We did watch a movie in the living room one night, 3 of us. There are tv's in both bedrooms as well. And there's a lovely small balcony if you want coffee at home.Most important, for the time we were in Paris, was the air conditioning, which was fantastic and much needed at the end of our hot days sightseeing. Also, the elevator is large enough for 3, and the unit is only on the 2nd floor, so walking is also fine.It was in a lovely, bustling area with cafes and bakeries, and half a block from the subway. We had coffee and croissants every morning at the Rouge Lime cafe on the corner. Perfect way to start each day.The 11th arrondisment is a great area, and it's easy to walk or take a subway to all major sights and other areas. We would happily stay here again.
