The apartment is truly charming with numerous personal artifacts and decor from all over the world. It really is a pretty flat. With plenty of books! Fantastic location - 10 steps away from the Chemin Vert station on the purple line and a 12 min walk, along a straight path, to Bastille. The host is also very prompt with her responses despite being away. If you have a lot of luggage, do take note that there is no closet space and empty storage areas. Also, the kitchen used induction stove, so we couldn't use our aluminum pot & couldn't cook due to limited crockery. But what we really hoped we had was a decent kettle for our hot water, a fresh sponge for doing the dishes and a clean oven. Unfortunately, as the apartment has wooden floorboards, there happened to be a nail which popped up in the master bedroom. I had injured myself badly with the nail and wished there was a clearly indicated first aid kit. Thankfully, although it was late in the night, the host replied to our queries on first aid supplies within the apartment. Apartment comes equipped with washing machine, juicers, microwave and convention ovens, dish washer, hair dryers and has good heating and more importantly a host who is quick with her responses. Definitely worth a return trip.
