The apartment is very pretty and brand new. It is located in one of the nicest areas of Paris and the street is lined with great small restaurants, bakeries, organic food stores, and boutiques. Attractions like the Musee d’Orsay and Rodin as well as a series of other smaller museums like Bourdelle, Maillol and Zadkine are a short walk (around 15-20 minutes) away, as are the Luxembourg Gardens. The Bon Marche department store and its Grand Epicerie food store is practically around the corner. The building is well maintained and safe, and the apartment overlooks a nice paved courtyard with flowers. There was no issue with noise in the building or even the street, and neighbors are quiet and respectful of each other. The studio is beautifully designed and tastefully furnished, with lots of integrated storage space (as an architect myself, I was very happy with this feature). The bed is very large and the mattress fantastic. Bed linen and bath towels were of high quality and everything was just like in the photos and spotlessly clean. The apartment includes all amenities one might need during their stay, including a washing machine installed in a small nook in the bathroom. Communication with Valerie and her assistant, Oceane, was smooth and prompt. They are both super nice and always available for questions and helpful with any requests I had (their office is right next to the apartment, overlooking the courtyard too). The apartment provides a great stay in a great area of this great city and I cannot recommend it enough. Many thanks, Valerie and Oceane.
