A great location very handy to Rue Montegueil and all the great food options there. It was lovely being in the heart of the Wholesale fashion area and seeing the buyers going in and out of the stores and behind the scenes of the Paris fashion district.
The location is handy to metro stations as well as being easy to get around to all the major sites via walking.
Although the apartment is in a old building, the renovation on all rooms is fairly recent with new bathrooms, comfortable beds and linen.
The apartment is on the second floor up three flights of stairs - there is no lift. The main stairs are not too bad, and we were helped up by the welcoming team.
Note the apartment is a Duplex which when we booked we thought would be great as we were a couple and a single. As we were travelling long haul we had a few large bags. Originally we had planned for the top floor for the couple as it had a large room as shown on the site. However as this room is only accessed via a small spiral staircase, the large bags had to be left down stairs. Based on this we gave the single person the big room as too difficult to manage bars and stairs and my husband being 6 foot found the stairs tricky to go up and down.
No problems with getting the key as Laurent and the team were on hand to make sure we had a quick check in. A good location to stay in Paris.
