About our visit: We are a married couple from Israel and visited this apartment in October 2011 for 7 nights. Monic the host: Monic was very nice. We arrived around 02:00am as our flight was delayed for about 3 hours. Monic did not leave us on the street and came to check us in although she requested her cab fare (25e) which is fair. Although it was in the middle of the night, she took the time to explain to us about the apartment and the surroundings. A little inconvenience was when she asked us to buy her cigarettes in our duty free. We didn't like it but we wanted make her happy. --------------------------------------------------- The apartment in a sentence: Great location and generally nice place. We won't recommend staying there over a few days and preferably one person. In details: 1. Location: The apartment is located in very central location in Paris. You have everything around you from supermarkets to coffee shops. It was nice to able to walk home easily from most touristic sites. 2. Noise: There are almost no vehicles passing by the apartment and it is very quiet from this perspective. BUT, there are a lot of other noise factors: a. You can hear the neighbor's pipes every few minutes – annoying! b. Mainly in the weak end there is noise from groups of "party" people passing by the street as it is a "hip" area. c.

It was VERY annoying – they were laughing very loud, a lot of cigarettes smoke from the open window and it was usually up until very late at night. In general, since we were SO tired from walking and site seeing all day we slept ok apart from waking up from time to time by these noisy things. 3. Size: As Monic mentions in the apartment description – the place is tinny. It is so small that you hardly have room to move if your bags are out of the closet. My wife and I are very slim and even we found ourselves suffocated in this tinny space. One particular problem and VERY IMPORTANT with the size – the toilets are too small for tall people! I am 1.82m tall and could not sit on the toilet and fully close the bathroom door! It may sound funny (and it's embracing for me to say) but I had to ask my wife to leave the apartment for a while so I can sit on the damn toilet with the door open. In addition, since the shower is combined with the toilets, you can't get dressed in the shower but have to do it outside the shower – otherwise it just impossible. 4. Facilities: Besides the problem with the bathroom all other facilities worked as expected. The internet was in great speed. We almost never got stuck with any hot water. A lot of kitchen supplies and a...
