I loved Eva’s place and hope to stay there again!
The location was perfect for me as I wanted to spend this trip exploring Pere Lachaise cemetery (only about a 10 minute walk away), and since it is right by a metro station, the location is also great for going pretty much anywhere in Paris. There are also many excellent cafés, restaurants and grocery stores within a 10 minute walk away. I cook a lot myself when in Paris, and the kitchen was well equipped for my needs. There is an excellent vegan bakery (VG Patisserie) and a vegan restaurant/grocery store (Aujourd’hui Demain) very close buy, so the location is perfect for vegans!
The apartment is rather large by Paris standards, in a lovely old building but recently renovated and well-decorated. You need to climb up three flights of winding stairs, but by Paris standards, the stairs were wide and in good shape. There are beautiful big windows that look out onto the street giving a wonderful view. The windows let in a lot of sunlight and heat (which can be a bad thing in the summer), but also can be opened easily letting in fresh, cool air in the summer evenings (however, sometimes it is rather warm in Paris even in the evening, so this place might not be ideal for summer travel for people who cannot sleep well in a warm apartment).
The place is ideal for single travellers or couples. It might be a bit awkward to stay with a friend or relative, as the bedroom and shower don’t have doors, so there isn’t much privacy.
The self check-in was extremely simple and Eva was very friendly, though I didn’t get to meet her in person. No complaints!
