We stayed in unit 33 and that is what the photos reflected except for the one that showed the door for units 31 and 32. All the room photos are accurate and reflect the condition of everything which is a huge plus. Communication with the host was excellent and we received all the codes for the building/doors prior to check in.
Location: Great! More restaurants and bakeries than you could eat at for a week. Also within a 5-10 min walk to 3 different Metro stations so you can get to anywhere in Paris fast. We walked to Gallerie Lafayette every morning for breakfast/lunch. The food selection there is fantastic.
Listing says sofa bed is comfortable: TRUE! Probably the most unique pull out sofa bed I have seen. Mattress is as nice as a regular bed with no cross members digging in your back. I like a firmer mattress so this was perfect. If you like a soft cushy pillow top style this may not suit you as well.
Listing says fully equipped kitchen: TRUE! This host does not skimp on any of the amenities. Says there is a Nespresso machine with pods and that is the truth. There were more than enough pods for my wife and I to each have 2 coffee’s every morning of our 5 day stay (with some even left over). Sugar was also provided. Kitchen had a cooktop, fridge, and microwave all in excellent working condition.
Noise: So this is a unique one for us. I will preface this with saying that I understand staying in a city condo/apartment style home is going to come with noise. The interesting thing here is that all the noise we got was internal. We didn’t hear any cars, sirens, music, etc that you might expect to hear in this type of location. It was incredible how little external noise there was. The inside is a different story. The walls and floors are pretty thin and you will hear other guests/inhabitants at all hours of the day/night. But I have to say it again, we are suburb folk and used to very little noise so this may not be an issue for you and it certainly wouldn’t keep us from getting this great place again.
The unit comes with an air conditioning which can be controlled separately in each room which is great. There is also a combo washer/dryer which is extremely handy. These amenities put this AirBnB ahead of many others in Paris.
All in all this is a fantastic AirBnB (location, condition, host) and we would be happy to stay here again!
