Overall this was a pleasant place to stay while visiting Paris. It is close by to a fairly big supermarket, metro stations and many bus routes. We felt secure while staying here as there is two electronically locking doors as well as the door to the apartment itself being locked closed. However it is worth noting that the walls are paper thin, not soundproof in the slightest - when someone walks through the corridor outside it is almost like they are inside your room! The blinds are slightly broken so you do have to adjust them yourself but none of these are major issues (May be worth noting that there are no curtains on the bathroom/kitchen window, although no one walks past these areas anyway). The apartment is clean and bright and the bed is incredibly warm and comfortable. The apartment can get a little cold but has heating which quickly heats the place up, the heater is quite loud though (also the cooker is a bit fiddly). There is storage for clothes or bags. It is small and basic but perfectly nice to live in for a couple of days. Violette was sweet and helped us with any questions along with pointing us in the direction of the metro and local supermarkets, she also met with us outside the building at check in time so we were not left waiting in the street. A good place for any backpackers or people on a short break in Paris. Very comfortable.
