We’d like to start by saying we would recommend others to stay at this place, but to view our pros and cons to see if any of them help you make your decision.
Pros:
The place was beautiful and was just as the pictures show. It was cute and cozy! Nicolas was the house manager that we spoke with through the app, and he was very helpful and quick to respond. We also made a last minute booking and he was able to accommodate us, with some amenities delayed. We arrived early that morning and someone else he works with met us at the apartment so we could drop off our luggage earlier than the check in time, and said we could stay in the room if needed. As English native speakers, we were also able to communicate with most of the people we encountered for the Airbnb since they spoke English well enough.
Cons:
To get to the apartment, you need to walk to 4 flights (74 steps), and the staircase was narrow and winding, so getting up heavy luggage was difficult. We stayed during the summer (July) and knew París was going to be hot, so we made sure to find a place that had air conditioning. Though it worked, the air conditioning was mildly cool and it barely reached the loft bedroom, which was very warm and not a comfortable temperature to sleep in (for us at least). There was the option to open the windows as well, but some nights the AC was needed. Since we arrived earlier than check in time, we were told that new linens for the bed and towels would be dropped off at a later time. This did not happen until almost 3 hours after the normal check in time. We were told that it was communicated to us, so it must have gotten lost in translation since we were unaware. There was also no soap or shampoo for the shower, but after we asked for it, some was dropped off later that night. We also had trouble getting out of the place since we were only showed how to enter, but not to exit. We were able to figure that out (there was a button on the wall by the gate to exit to the door), but it took us some time. We also figured out that you need to tap on the light switches on the walls as you walk the halls to turn on the timed lights.
Again, we would recommend staying at this place, as long as you are ok with the stairs and the mildly cool air conditioning. We faced some minor bumps, as mentioned above, but all was worked out and everything else went smoothly. Thank you for a nice stay!
