First let me say that the home owners Marc and Rumi were more helpful than I could ever have wished for. They sent us so much good information, well in advance of our arrival, arranged transportation to and from the apartment. You could not find any better people anywhere.
I struggled with a four star or a five star rating. For all of the reasons above I would have given them 5 stars.
This is Europe and you expect every accommodation to be tiny and this place is no exception. I forgot to read that this unit did not have air conditioning (my fault not theirs) We were there the first of July and with the fan that they provided and the open window at night the temperature was manageable.
The bathroom is extremely small and could be made better by moving the mirror above the sink instead of the toilet.
The bed comes down from the ceiling and has enough room under it for your luggage. It is a climb to get up into the bed but once in there, it was comfortable.
With my observations out of the way, let me say that if you are a couple and your intention is to stay out of the unit until bedtime like we did; this place will work fine. It is close to the Eiffel Tower and near several parks and museums. There are plenty of small restaurants within a couple of blocks and there are a number of small shops near by too.
This couple could not possibly have been any nicer or more communicative.
I just can't say enough good things about them. Marc met us in the street and took us to the unit. He brought us cookies and water. You can't beat that! Honestly I would stay here again even though I've just told you how small it was. If your expectations are set properly and Marc and Rumi have been totally honest in there portrayal of this property, then you will have a great stay.
