Thomas’ apartment is small but was perfect for our quick trip to Paris. The kitchen is really tight, but since we weren’t planning to cook, it worked out well. We didn’t have any issues with the actual apartment. It was clean and had everything we needed. It is in a good location, near a large train/metro station. If you plan on using public transportation and don’t know French, be prepared to give yourself ample time to find the metro tracks the first time you use it.
Only issue we really had was getting into the apartment. There are no apartment numbers at the front of the building, so we could not ring a doorbell to notify anyone we were there. We just had to wait until someone came to let us in. Furthermore, because we are traveling internationally, we don’t have cell service and had to find a cafe to sit at in order to use their WiFi to communicate. Thomas was unable to greet us, so had someone else meet us. She was later than expected, so we had to sit and wait for a while before being let in. Not a huge aggravation, but after traveling for 15 hours, it would have been nice to have an easier check in.
