Hello, my sister, and I will be in Paris, in October and we have gotten an apartment right across the street. From the cafe,
99 Rue Saint Lazare. Just one wondering if anyone can give me insight as to the neighborhood.We liked that it was a good area to walk from between montemart, the louvre.The eiffel tower et cetera.
Any info appreciated thank you

Have you looked on Google Maps Street View?. That area of the street appears to be a run of the mill shopping street with shops, cafés and brasserie at street level and apartments above. a Metro close by, as well as the Gare Haussmann Saint Lazare, so I'd expect busy pedestrian traffic until late evening..

This is a very busy, very commercial area. It's well-connected by public transportation, very close to the big department stores, too. Just be sure your bedroom is on the courtyard side or has double or triple-pane glass windows. If it's for summer and you need to open the windows, you do not want rooms opening onto the busy street, but onto the courtyard. It's very centrally located.
