Coco's place was absolutely perfect for me and I spent three very happy weeks in her apartment which is in a fantastic location. It is small but very cleverly designed so that you have everything you need and do not feel cramped. The view from the balcony is beautiful (you can see the Eiffel tower!). The kitchen is very well equipped and I often cooked dinner in the room. The apartment is very close to lots of different metro stations which is very useful. The walk up the stairs did not bother me at all but would be difficult if you have an injury or are elderly. I found myself looking forward to coming home every day because it was such a cute place to stay. I also felt very safe in the apartment. It was noisy at night time with the windows open but I found I got used to the noise of the traffic – Paris is just generally a noisy city so it is difficult to avoid I think. I can highly recommend Coco’s apartment. As I said I spent three very happy weeks there and felt very sad to leave on my last day. Coco was a lovely host who checked in with me throughout my stay to ensure I was happy and provided me with lots of helpful information for the city. She was a delightful host. Thank you Coco!
