We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Miniloft. It is an older apartment with great character, and fit our needs perfectly. Traveling as a mom with a young adult son, it provided separate, private, fun spaces. My son especially loved the loft with the balcony/terrace. It was extremely quiet at night, and the beds were comfortable, so we slept amazingly well. The kitchenette was sufficient as we did not intend to do any cooking, but could keep snacks in the refrigerator and make tea and coffee in the morning. From an American perspective, the space might by small, the four flights up a challenge, the hot water heater small, and the door locks may require a tutorial to get in and out. However, none of this was unexpected, nor should we expect it be just like "home" when we are visiting. That being said, throughout the course of our stay, we found ourselves referring to the Miniloft as "home" as we liked it so much.
The location was perfect for us as the Metro stop was a few blocks away, and with the help of a navigation app, we were able to easily get to anywhere we wanted to go with public transportation (just make sure you keep your Metro ticket with you until you come above ground as you may be asked to show it). Locally, there were bakeries, restaurants, bars, ATMs, grocery stores--all within a few minutes' walk.
Anne-Emmanuelle provided everything we needed, the surprises being an electrical converter and a folder filled with local recommendations for places to eat and things to do. We are also so very grateful to her as we arrived very late on our first day due to unexpected Sunday night traffic coming from Normandy, but she still graciously received us.
I highly recommend the Miniloft for those who are looking for an affordable place to stay in Paris.
