We had a great time at Nelly’s apartment, the two balcony views are unbelievable and we enjoyed relaxing in the apartment. We liked some of the quirky decor and 1960(ish!) apartment block, a slightly dated luxury French feel. The bed was comfy and kitchen really well set up for cooking. Someone else mentioned a smell of cigarettes which we could tell a little but it wasn’t so bad. The metro and bus connections are good and lots of supermarkets and a bakery close. It’s also a quiet area and felt relaxing. Our communications about the apartment were in French (as I think security guard who speaks English was on holiday) which was fine of course, but we got a little confused about which apartment it was and the swimming pool arrangements but once we got access it was great (views 360 across Paris from the pools) - but don’t forget your swimming caps as think we made an error forgetting this as French pools are strict so I went to buy some!
