I agree with the previous reviews, and what can I tell you that Gaëlle's comprehensive description hasn’t already covered? Well, the apartment was ideal for my family, I was struggling to find one with separate beds for my teenage son and 11 year old daughter, let alone separate bedrooms, the kids were very happy. Plenty of space for us all to kick about in, and very clever use of every corner of the apartment. It is 110 steps up to the apartment (my daughter counted them!), but worth it to get the full Parisian experience of looking out over the rooftops, and the Eiffel Tower (don’t miss the light show on the hour every hour!), from a very quiet and tastefully decorated duplex. We did get a bit chilly one or two evenings, but half an hour of having the heating on was enough to warm the place up. It was very clean and has everything you need, Gaëlle had thoughtfully put post -it notes around the apartment to let us know where things were, and there was also a file with helpful information in, in French, but Google Translate is a wonderful app!! As a previous reviewer said, the WIFI was great, bad coverage is a definite deal breaker in my household.
Location is ideal, glad we decided not to stay in the suburbs after all. From Gaëlle's apartment we walked to both the Sacré Coeur/Montmartre one day and the Arc de Triomphe/Champs-Élysées another. Took the number 81 bus other days from Avenue de Clichy to the Louvre (it goes past the beautiful Opera House). The metro is a minute away, and from there we travelled out one day to Versailles. The area itself is full of shops/bars/restaurants , so much life and vitality in the area yet the apartment building is like a little oasis in the middle of it.
Communication was fantastic, with Gaëlle responding very quickly to my emails, and the key handover from the neighbours on arrival was straightforward. I would thoroughly recommend renting this apartment from Gaëlle.
