Patrick & Franck’s apartment is in excellent location right next to Gare de l’Est and Gare du Nord. All the amenities are close by (supermarket, restauraunts, cafes, etc.). There is only 10 mins walk to Canal St. Martin.
The apartment is located on the 5th floor of a historic building which has no elevator, thus there are a lot of stairs to walk. However, Franck was there to meet us when we arrived, and he was generous to help us with our bags. That was truly appreciated, as during our stay I was 6 months pregnant, and the stairs alone provided me enough of challenge :) Merci, Franck!
The apartment was very clean, and it has amazing balcony where we enjoyed our breakfast every morning. Even though the building is located next to a busy street, the apartment itself was very quiet and we were not bothered by the traffic noises at all. The bed was excellent and the kitchen has all the necessary equipment we needed during our stay.
Both Patrick & Franck were super friendly, and they really went beyond to make our stay as pleasant as possible. One night the neighbours next door were having a 50th anniversary party, and Patrick & Franck generously offered us their own guest room in case we couldn’t get sleep in our apartment. That was a super friendly gesture, even though in the end we were able to sleep in our own apartment, as the party next door wasn’t too loud and the noice didn’t bother us.
The communication with the hosts was easy, and they were really responsive to all our messages. They even arranged us a late check out on the day of our departure, as our flight was leaving quite late in the evening.
All in all we had a perfect stay in Patrick & Franck’s apartment, and we would highly recommend to book it!
