There were 5 of us staying: mom, dad, two kids (7, 8), and grandpa. The Atelier apartment was absolutely perfect. We stayed in the bedroom next door to the kids’ room, and grandpa got the “loft”. Sleeping arrangements were excellent. Comfortable beds, a little on the firm side. Nice linens.
Kitchen was super handy and nicely appointed. SO NICE to have a washing machine. No dryer so you’ll have to hang things up.
The building is relatively quiet. You can hear some walking around in the units above, but there is no noise from the common areas. Overall very peaceful.
Tons of restaurants within walking distance. We recommend La Sancerre for casual lunch or dinner. And Happy Nouilles if you’re in the mood for Asian food. DO NOT miss the pastisserie Ernest and Valentin around the corner. We started going there in the morning and bringing back breakfast.
There are two markets with 3 blocks of the apartment which is super handy. Great location overall with Arts and Metiers metro stop right around the corner.
We miss Paris already!
