This was our first visit to France and we chose this apartment because of its proximity to the St. Lazare train station, and we’re very happy with our choice. It’s in a quiet neighborhood and near several restaurants and a few small grocery markets. There is also a wine shop and an artisan bakery nearby. But what really makes this apartment a terrific choice is the host, Despina. It's like visiting your favorite auntie in Paris. She greeted us at the apartment with fresh croissants and gave us a helpful tour to explain how the modern stove, oven, washer, shower and other amenities worked. The apartment was well equipped with everything you might need, from coffee to (nice!) soaps and shampoos to plenty of towels. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony with a glass of wine, and there is also a comfortable sitting room in the back of the apartment. The host speaks very good English and was responsive to questions during our stay when we needed help getting the Wi-Fi to work. The apartment is on the 5th floor of the building and there is an elevator, but know that it’s not for the claustrophobic because it’s only large enough for one person OR one large suitcase. I very much recommend this Airbnb rental. Great price, great location, great host!
