This newly renovated 2nd floor apartment is situated on a small street in the 2nd - very convent to 3 Metro stations and easy walking to the Louvre and other attractions. Very near Rue Montorgueil and Rue St Denis - both packed with interesting shops, restaurants and bars. However some things were not ideal. The agency person who checked us in gave only a cursory orientation to the apartment and appeared to be in a rush to leave. The owner/agency left no written info about where to find things in the apartment, WiFi info, or where to find groceries etc nearby. When I called the agency to ask for info I was told to "look in the contract" , which had no such information. The kitchen lacked certain essentials (an egg lifter). The agency was only available 10am-6pm, so when the WiFi went down we had to wait a day to get it fixed. The bars on the street were loud and noisy till 2am or later, so bring earplugs! No ventilation so had to leave the windows open at night. And the rest of the building was a construction zone (we were not informed) and workman started using power tools right outside our bedroom window at 8am. The workmen also propped the entry doors open most of the day - big security risk. Overall - this was a great location to explore Paris, but unfortunately this apartment and the managing agency had many deficiencies that really detracted from our stay. Too bad!
