It absolutely has 6 floors, and counting as the Americans do with ground floor being floor 1, then the top floor would be floor 6.
I can’t find good photos so I’m using Google Earth, but I kinda agree with OP, I find 16 quai de bondy bears more resemblance than 6 rue burdeau, even accounting for foreground. Rue burdeau is way too close to those points of interest.
But as you said, it’s all inspiration anyways. Interesting that there’d still be some identifiable landmarks in the background if the foreground is all just kinda made up.
Well you asked …
Obviously an inspiration but not the exact same place.
Edit:
6 Rue Burdeau is a way better match for the viewpoint
