This place is literally the best value for money you can get in Paris. If you are a tourist and here for a few days only, then this is THE PLACE for u. Everything is literally walking distance away….metro, best eateries, shopping, sight seeing. U name it and it is at your door step. Above all, Yankel is a superb host. The apartment cleanliness was great. His response was within minutes to any query. He had a list of suggestions on places to eat. I tried one of them and it was excellent indeed. One of the appliances (electric kettle) was not working and he immediately replaced it. Best of all there was some coffee and sugar and tea to help u get settled in. If I could I would give this place 10 stars!
However in all fairness, the only downside is what is not in the host control. The apartment is on 4th floor with no lift so u need to be prepared for a steep climb up 😞 Also even though the apartment window opens into the back street, still it can get quite noisy if u leave your windows open. But to me personally it was a fair trade off for the central location and value for money.
