We had a wonderful stay in Rachel's beautiful apartment. Her son Tom was waiting for us on arrival and it was so convenient to have a free and secure parking space included. The apartment is newly refurbished and is quirky and unique with lots of upcycled and vintage furniture and a Paris theme, which we loved. We even compiled a game when my 6 year old niece stayed, to count the number of Eiffel towers in the whole apartment (we found 29!) The apartment had everything we needed except a a cafetière (we forgot to bring our own!) but there was a coffee machine and a good supply of pods to keep us going all week. A good selection of store cupboard ingredients and equipment, also made cooking really easy, as we didn't have to buy things like oil or seasoning which would be wasted for a short stay. There are 3 supermarkets (a couple which open late and on Sundays) as well as local butchers, patisseries, bakeries, fromagerie, green grocers and an eclectic selection of different restaurants, all within minutes of the apartment. We were spoilt for choice. We loved the welcome book which had cards from lots of local restaurants and price ranges to meet every budget. Try the Kurd wraps and the little pizza place- they were both always buzzing and full of locals and were cheap and delicious! It was so convenient with 3 metro stations and RER all within walking distance. It's very well located for sight-seeing of all the landmarks. We will definitely be back! What a unique find-such a romantic apartment to have stayed in the city of love. Thank you for making my 30th birthday such a magical experience. We can't wait to return!
