You can't beat the location of this apartment. It is literally steps from Saint Michel Place on one side and Boulevard St. Germain on the other. It is steps from the Metro and across the street from Pont Napolean where you are about 5 minutes from Saint Chapelle and less than 10 minutes from Notre Dame. Lots of restaurants within walking distance.
The apartment itself is roomy for Paris standards. It's very modern with concrete floors and concrete shower. There is a queen size sofa bed in the living room that is quite comfortable and a king size bed in the loft. There is a small kitchen that is stocked with dishes if you decide to eat in and also a coffee maker. There is a combo washer and dryer and laundry detergent is supplied, which was great for our family of four so that we didn't have to pack as much. It was a little difficult to decipher to symbols to figure out how to use it but we were able to manage with some help from the internet.
WiFi connection is strong and there is a printer in case you need one. There is also a safe in the apartment if you want to store away any valuables or cash.
The apartment is on the sixth floor and there is a lift that takes you to the fifth floor and then you walk up the last set of stairs. Having a lift for an apartment seems to be a rarity and it was definitely appreciated.
The other thing that was great about the apartment was that it had air conditioning. It wasn't super hot while we were there but the air conditioning came in handy nonetheless. The loft did not get as much of the air conditioning given the height and so it remained somewhat warm up there.
To get to the loft, there is a set of floating stairs. Since there is no railing, I wouldn't recommend this apartment if you have young children. Our kids are older so not an issue.
There were plenty of towels and shampoo, soap and conditioner were supplied.
This was our first AirBnB experience, and overall, it was great. It was a great value for our family of four. Given that most hotels in Paris will only allow a max of three people per room, we would have had to get two hotel rooms. There is a Holiday Inn across the street and the per night cost of two rooms there would have exceeded the cost that we paid per night to stay in Alessandra's apartment and we wouldn't have had nearly the amount of space. Highly recommend this location if you are looking for a place to stay in Paris that is centrally located! Thank you Alessandra!
