Location is amazing. Notre Dame is a 1-minute walk away. There's plenty of cheap food and bars/restaurants surrounding the studio, right on the front door. Luckily you can't hear anything at night with the windows open because the studio is set back from the street with other apartments in between. Only a 2-minute walk to the nearest metro station, including the one that gets you there from CDG airport via the RER train. Inside is... small. As expected, but still. There is basically nowhere to put your luggage during your stay, so try to pack light. There is a bit of cabinet space to unpack your things into, but you'll still struggle with where to leave a suitcase without it being in the way. A soft-shell bag would've worked better for us here for that reason. The shower is cool with its 5 nozzles, even if it's a little cramped, and there was usually enough hot water for 2 10-minute showers for us (I'm not sure but I think the hot water is shared in the building?) Biggest problem for us during our stay was the heat in the lofted bed area. There is ZERO airflow up there, even with the windows wide open at night, and there was no fan in the studio (we asked). That'll be a must in the summer (we visited in Spring but there was a slight heat wave of 80 degrees F for the first half of the stay) if you want to sleep. Hopefully one gets added for future guests. Bed isn't super comfortable, it's one of those thin foam pads from Ikea. It'll do the job if you're tired from walking the city, though. There is about 2 feet of clearance above the bed, so you'll be bumping your head here and there. The sofa bed was way worse comfort wise - we tried because of the heat up in the loft. Pretty much impossible to get comfortable on the sofa bed, which has always been my experience with those. We had other issues that made our stay less-than perfect, which I'll describe just so others can learn from our experience: - The base of the toilet was leaking (thankfully clean) water on our first night. Enough to notice and to soak the rug in the bathroom. Our host had her husband come look at it same-day, and it seemed fixed well enough until our last night. Hopefully they get that fixed! - The washer/dryer. The dryer shrunk some of our clothes... and we read the instructions on it to make sure we were using the right settings for cotton. My gf's clothes shrunk in the wash/dry cycle, and I threw things in to just dry (to remove some wrinkles). The dry-only cycle for cotton (low/medium heat) ran for 3 hours (I expected an hour or so, but it kept running while we were away), and when I finally stopped it manually, my clothes were too hot to touch. The metal rivets...
