Overall, my partner and I had a nice stay at Lola's place. She is a very warm and friendly host and very responsive. The apartment itself is very charming and the set up is well laid-out. The shelves and shelves of books add a very homey vibe. There isn't a whole lot of free space to put your belongings on, so keep that in mind. We made it work pretty well though. There's lots of natural light which was a plus. Great sound system. Lola also let us use the coffee she had. That was a really great touch and much appreciated. We enjoyed a cup every morning. The building is really quiet. The street is too, for the most part. There is a school across the way, so on weekday mornings, you'll probably hear children talking loudly/doing what school kids do. Wasn't too bothersome. I mean, we live in NYC so we're used to just about every loud noise. The location of the apartment is pretty convenient too. And it's far enough away where you can escape the bustle of the city center, but not so far out that you feel like you're not in Paris. It's about a 4-10 minute walk to the closest Metro stations, which will take you to just about everywhere you'll want to go.
