We stayed for 5 nights at the apartment. It is inside an old large building near the public transport.
Positives
1. It is large apartment, which is rear for Paris. We were family of 3 and we enjoyed space thourghly.
2. Location is very good for all local transports. it is next to Gare du Nord (Large) station, there are 3 more Metro stations near by, so travelling is very easy.
Things to Improve:
1. Communication. This property is managed by an Airbnb Concierge company, so please be ready for a lot of standard replies. It is good, till things are going smooth,however in case of any help etc, it is difficult to get answers.
We did request for early check in, as the apartment was empty for previous two days and there were no guests staying. However despite multiple requests, they kept giving standard answers and did not confirm. Finally they did ready the apartment early, but confirmed at very last minute, which was of no use as we had stored our luggage in cloak room by then.
2. Place need some bit of repair and upkeep.
3. There was a lack of basic utilities like some cleaning items and tissues papers etc. We did buy it at our own, but would have been great if a small quantity was stored at apartment.
4. There is only one toilet (very small) and can be difficult.
5. There is no fan or AC.
