I had a lovely stay in this extremely well-located place for a very good deal. Communication with the hosts was good. The apartment has everything you need for a nice stay, long or short. The real highlight is that it is walking distance from a lot of the main attractions in the 1st arr., as well as right next to the RER, so you can easily get to and from the airport or major train stations of Paris. This made it very convenient for me to come here for a short stay over the weekend, arriving via Eurostar at the Gare du Nord and leaving via Orly Airport—both very accessible from this apartment on the RER.
I really appreciated that the apartment had a washer/dryer, washing machine, and coffee maker. All the amenities were very useful. The bed was extremely comfortable, and I slept well. A few small things could use some work: when I arrived the towels and bedding had a musty smell. I wound up rewashing the towels with the in-unit machines and they smelled much better. It was not a huge problem, but it was a bit unsettling. I also found that some of the doors and drawers within the apartment were difficult to open, indicating that the fixtures were poor quality. And although the shower worked very well, it was not fully finished on the side, and seems like it needs to be re-tiled or otherwise fixed. That said, for the price this is a very good deal for such a spacious place in a super convenient area of Paris. I would stay again, though I hope that perhaps some of the minor issues can be addressed in the future.
