My boyfriend and I stayed at Vladimir's place for three nights. It was our first time in Paris, and therefore perfect.
It is easy to reach by the metro, and everything is close by either walking distance or by metro.
The studio itself is very small. It is literally just one room with a small entrance and kitchen area and a tiny bathroom, but for two people for a few nights it is absolutely fine. A big plus are the two small balconies with a great view over Paris.
Yes, and it is on the sixth floor with NO elevator. We knew that and were aware of it. To be honest it is only a pain the first time bringing the luggage up there.
And the view you have therefor compensates for it.
Unfortunately we weren't able to meet Vladimir in person because he was out of town, but the communication was great. He gave us a perfect description of where to find the keys, how to get in, how to reach his apartment, even a description of where to find lockers in Paris as we couldn't leave our luggage at his place after check out.
It was amazing!!! Thank you!!!
