I had high expectations after reading all the positive reviews and the apartment did not disappoint. It is in a neighborhood with a lot of restaurants, yet it was quiet partly due to its location on a narrow street. There was a lot of natural light in the living room. I don’t know how we could have gotten a better location as we could walk everywhere (the metro stop is also very close).
The apartment was well-organized and had everything we needed, including a lot of cooking supplies (which we didn’t use given the abundance of good restaurants). An excellent bakery was 200 feet from the front door, a grocery store was a block away and a wine store was a couple doors down the street. The bed was comfortable, as was the furniture, and the bedroom was well-located in the back of the apartment away from the street. It was only half a floor up the stairs to the front door.
We didn’t get to meet Julien as he was out of town, but the check-in went smoothly and he was nice enough to let us leave our luggage in the apartment for a few hours after check-out time so that we could enjoy Paris easily for one more afternoon. We appreciate his recommendations and he instantly answered any questions we had.
I will definitely attempt to stay here again the next time we come to Paris.
