This is seriously a magical gem! In a city full of rooms about the size of a closet for $300/night, we were overjoyed to stay the last half of our week at this place, the only unit on the 5th floor, and it was delightful. Not to mention unique in decor and art. Comfy king size bed, large space with a sitting area, desk, big smart tv on an adjustable mount, and tons of storage space. The bathroom is all black so it’s pretty dim, and the shower has no separation so you end up with water from the shower by the sinks and toilet, but nothing a towel can’t fix. His and hers sinks and closets.
Location wise it’s perfect: close to tons of famous cafes if that’s your thing, otherwise a block or two in any direction will lead you to amazing French food, boulangeries, chocolatiers, and fromageries, a little less touristy and a bit cheaper. From here it was a 10-15 minute walk to the Louvre, Pantheon, and Luxembourg gardens.
The only inconvenience for us is the thermostat would only go to heat or fan, we were unable to get the air conditioning on- even after watching YouTube instructions it wasn’t an option. Not sure if the unit actually has it or not, though Yankel thought it did. It was 70 degrees Fahrenheit all week and it got toasty, so we had all 3 big windows open, we sleep hot and it didn’t quite cool down enough for us. We are city people, and this isn’t a complaint but just a heads up, this is a busy neighborhood! The noise never calmed down, even til 5am. Between the traffic, people leaving the pub yelling, office cleaners cleaning at all hours of the night across the street, and trash pickup, there’s constant city noises with the windows open. Regardless, it was a perfect stay, we will be back when we return to Paris again!
Superb location and great communication from Yankel! Read the instructions that come via message - we never would have found the lift to access the unit if we hadn’t ;)
