This apartment is wonderfully situated close to Place Vendome. If you want museums and other attractions on the Right Bank, this is the place. Plus, walk down the street through the Tuleries, cross the river, and there's the D'Orsay Museum. Luis is a great host, with making arrangements to show you in-person what you need to know. The apartment itself is satisfatory, and not more than that. A few simple things were missing; for example, soap for the tub/shower. The furniture is dated and could use a thinning to remove and/or replace some of it. The king-size bed is comforable. A benefit is that the unit is quiet as it looks out over a courtyard, not the busy street in front. However, a more recent problem is construction noise starting around 7:30 in the morning. This is not Luis's fault, but it's a shame that guests have to deal with it. All in all, don't expect a modern, up-to-date apartment, but only one that puts you in the middle of the action in an upscale part of town.
