Viktor and Elza's apartment was exactly what I needed for my weeklong Parisian getaway. The studio is cosy and small, but bright and welcoming. It looks just like the photos, and was clean, comfortable, and functional. For someone staying alone it is the perfect size, and I can imagine for a couple it would be quite comfortable as well. The wifi was reliable and fast and you are half a block from a metro station that can connect you to the rest of Paris in minutes. There is one large window in the apartment but it lets in an amazing amount of light. I rarely used the lamps unless it was entirely dark outside. Viktor and Elza were extremely quick to respond to my questions and when I let them know of a broken light even offered to come fix it right away. They gave me wonderful tips about places to eat in the neighborhood - sometimes in Paris it's easy to be overwhelmed by the plethora of fabulous meal options, so a little bit of guidance was quite helpful.
The apartment is tucked on a quiet side street just off a long street full of stores, cheese shops, cafes, and bakeries. On one side is a lovely wine store with a gentleman who doesn't speak english but will help you find a great bottle of wine anyway. To the other side are two grocery stores where you can grab some produce and essentials for your stay. The kitchen in the apartment is small but functional.
It is a 20-30 minute walk to the Eiffel Tower, a 10 minute walk to The Seine, and by train the rest of Paris is less than a 15/20 minute ride away. The 15th arrondissement is much less touristy than much of Paris, but it is a ways outside the fray as well which was a nice respite from the busy city life.
My stay was perfect and they only thing I would have changed was staying another week! Thank you so much to Viktor and Elza for making my vacation so lovely, easy, and comfortable.
