For my family (three teens and me) it was perfect. Great instruction but were met personally to be guided in.We loved the spaciousness, the place is cavernous and after a tight squeeze in Belgium, a very nice layout for our crew. The sitting room was huge with a large table overlooking the park and comfortable couch. The floor to ceiling French windows everywhere were both practical for a great cross breeze and beautiful. Aside from the openness and traditional Parisian charm, this was all about location. The flat was super close to the Bastille Metro (practically on top of the #9 Richard-Lenoir) entrance / exit at the base of the building so you don’t even have to cross a street to access to the 1, 5 & 8 metro lines, so you can get almost anywhere easily). This made all of Paris easily accessible. On the right days (Thursday and Sunday I believe) outside the windows was a huge farmers market with everything you can imagine. There is so much nearby and we found that we enjoyed the restaurants and coffee bars closer to home far more than near the more touristy spots. The Latte Lab was a teen favorite.One nearby gem was the Carnavalet Museum, which is a free history museum (for the three story permanent collection, the building itself being tour worthy) and easy walk past countless shops and restaurants to sample. If we had planned more time, we would have stopped at one of the dozens of bakeries on the way and enjoyed it at Place de Vosges park. It was beautiful.
