This was my first time in France and I was pleased with my stay here. This is the perfect location for the budget-minded and minimalist traveler. The apartment is small, but efficient. I had planned on spending most of my trip exploring Paris so I preferred a smaller unit. Regardless of size it has a separate bathroom, kitchen area with a small fridge, sink, and microwave (no stove top, but host had appliances that would quickly heat water or make coffee) washing machine, and plenty of wall storage. Bathroom amenities were very nice as well. Sleeping area was cozy and there was plenty of outlets near the bed which made it easier to have your phone by you. Lastly, the location was perfect! This is right near the Arts et Metiers metro line and also about a 20 minute to Norte Dame/Latin Quarter and the Louvre. It’s also in a fun neighborhood with lots of cafes, bars, and grocery stores.
