Nicholas was a great communicator and a very obliging host. The apartment was small but that is what I expected for Paris. Still better than a more expensive hotel room. The WiFi was great, the location very good being just away from the main Marais tourist area but still lively and within striking distance of everything. It is very quiet with no traffic noise but the neighbors were a bit noisy sometimes. I’m a light sleeper though and anyone who slept well would probably not be worried.
There were a few minor issues that, if addressed, would make a better experience. The ladder up to the bed has small rungs and it actually hurts to climb the ladder. Nor is the ladder secured to the bed. The handle on the bathroom basin is broken and is not easy to use. Finally, the light switches don’t seem to work and we had to make our way to the lamps when we came home after dark. All simple minor things but would make the stay that much better.
All in all, it was very good
