We spent a full month in this fabulous house and had a great time there. Emmanuel, Joëlle and their son Amaury were present at the begining of our stay to welcome us and take us for a very useful tour of the place. They are warm people and attentive hosts. It is obvious that they love their house, where they have lived for a very long time, and that they are taking very good care of it. The decor has a certain "pop art" feel, which makes it very interesting and full of fun surprises. Some renovations and improvements took place shortly before the beginning of our stay and made the place even more comfortable. There is ample lighting through windows and skylights, but the orientation is such that it never feels hot inside, even during a heat wave (which was the case in Paris when we visited). The house is quite big by Paris standards. It spreads on three floors, which is very convenient to give everyone a bit of privacy. The ground floor is made of a large open space (living and dining room) and a small kitchen equipped with all the essentials. We occupied the master beedroom on the top floor, a large room with a bed, a couch and two skylights (automated blinds allow to block the light at night). Our daughter slept in a bedroom located on the middle floor with an ensuite bathroom. As our stay was both for leisure and work, we used the mezzanine whenever one of us needed to be out ot the way to work, while everyone else could enjoy the rest of the house. Public transportation is extremely convenient, with the closest metro station (Émile-Zola) around the corner that allows you to get to the Latin Quarter within 15 minutes, and another station five minutes away (La Motte-Piquet) that is at the junction of three different lines. The house is located in a very quiet spot, yet just a minute away from bustlng Rue du Commerce which, as its name indicates, counts numerous stores - clothing, food, pharmacies, specialty shops, etc. There is a street market twice a week within a few minutes walk. We keep fond memories of this stay and would certainly consider renting this house again on another visit in Paris.
