This was a last minute Airbnb rental opportunity that opened up for me. This studio is very cozy and comfortable. The location is GREAT! Extremely well located (walking distance to Chatelet-Les-Halles, right next to Pompidou. good bus routes as well). There are plenty of places to eat at any time of the day. There are also nearby convenience stores. Lots of little shops and boutiques to shop in any direction you go. It is also walking distance from many popular and touristy spots. I love walking so I did walk all over Paris.
Perfect for 1 person or couple. I appreciated the fact that despite it being a studio/efficiency apartment, there was a defined separate sleeping and sitting area. It was not a sofa bed where once the sofa is transformed into a bed, there is no where to sit. While this is on the first floor, you still have the use of an elevator, which comes in handy as the stairs can be a bit narrow with big bags. Although I only used the elevator to get the bags up/down. The building itself was being renovated, which I was not expecting, but overall, it was not a big issue.
Despite being centrally located, it is very quiet. I slept very well on the comfy bed. The studio is well supplied and clean. And communication with the host is good. I was a bit concerned about arriving after midnight and having to pickup the key in a different location, but it’s literally 3 min walking distance away, self service and the area was still bustling with life! It was a non issue. Directions were excellent and no extra costs to pick up the key late.
Lastly, based on my search, the value for the stay (location, comfort, quiet, clean, safe) was excellent for a last minute stay. I would definitely stay there again if available for my next visit.
