Wonderful location, in a calm and extremely peaceful and safe part of the 8th arrondissement but still within a short walking distance of Gare Saint Lazare, Opera and the Champs Elysées. You could hear a pin drop when sleeping, due to the courtyard consisting mainly of law and consulting offices. The superintendent is very kind and helpful with your mail and packages, and neighbours are kind. Blueground was very helpful in providing things that I needed, and even bringing a plumber to help with the shower at some point. Unit is very large for Paris (with a large and well lit bathroom), and well equipped. I would strongly recommend more pantry storage, maybe even a slightly bigger fridge, and a pull-out couch in case you have a friend stay over, especially for long term rentals. Proximity to the metro and to a good gym was also key. Also, the ability to easily communicate with Blueground for any issue over the app makes life so easy, such as getting the unit cleaned.
