​​Carolina and Horatio were both very wonderful hosts. They gave us plenty of privacy and space on the first floor (they live on the second but share the kitchen), and trusted us to live in their house, which is very kind of them. The directions provided to the house is very clear and I had no problems getting in. Moreover, Horatio was very helpful and patient, showing us how to use the house keys when we could not figure out how to open the door.

Perfect Room
First of all, I have to say that the picture makes the bed look small but it was definitely a bed for two! It was comfortable and nice to sleep in, I rested very well. A nice touch is the European multi​-​plug next to the bed (travelers using other types of plugs should bring an adapter).​​

Towels for two, shampoo, soap and even hair conditioner​ ​were all provided. The hot water runs​ ​without interruption. There are a lot of drawers and hangers for use.

The balcony is a huge plus. None of the other apartments in the building appeared to have a balcony. It​ ​was lovely to buy a cheap meal from Carrefour on some days, heat it in the microwave and eat at the balcony. The balcony is covered by a row of bamboos so it offers some privacy.​ There is also an ashtray.

The kitchen is free for use but remember to bring your utensils because the Carrefour nearby does not sell disposable ones.

Great Location
The Metro entrance is indeed located right outside the apartment. This particular metro line (line 1) has a straight line to the main attractions of Paris which is a plus. Moreover, there are a lot of restaurants, cafes and even McDonald's just within 3 minutes walk of the apartment. Despite this, the building is soundproof and we rarely heard any noise with the windows closed.

The laundry shop is just 3 shops away: cafe, pharmacy, restaurant then laundry shop. It is very convenient to do your laundry for a very cheap price of 4 Euros per 6kg, 1 Euro for detergent and 1 Euro for​ ​every 10 minutes of the dryer.

Wheelchair access
I broke my foot. This apartment is wheelchair accessible with plenty of space, a lift, and kind and friendly neighbours! However, the first gate to the building has a giant threshold. You may require assistance lifting the wheelchair over it. I recommend this place to those who are able to stand up and take one step without the wheelchair, or those who have assistance.
