This flat is nestled in a sweet neighborhood on a quiet street in the Marais. There are many brasseries, cafes and a wonderful variety of restaurants right outside the door. Many other local neighborhood shops and markets just on the other side of the park a block or two away.
We walked to Marché des Enfants Rouges several times during our stay to pick up the freshest of vegetables and meats/fish to cook back at the flat. The kitchen in more than adequate with a few staples in the pantry. Bar space for eating--or perching while someone of cooking a sweet meal for you!
There is a washer for laundry in the bathroom and a drying rack provided. Nice shower and plenty of storage to stash personal items so they are out of the way.
The bedroom is basic, with windows that open out onto the quiet street below. Open them to hear the city noise. Shut them and you will completely block out any noise from the city sounds below. Lots of storage in the bedroom , as well--shelves and hanging space to hang clothes. The cabinets are deep enough to store large luggage to keep them out of the way, which is very much appreciated.
The elevator was out of service while we were there. Marie Claude notified us over a month in advance to inform us of this issue and offered to refund our money. We decided that we would make the 5 story climb. It generally was not a problem unless you were carrying large or heavy luggage up the winding staircase. We definitely got our exercise!
We very much enjoyed our stay, we made it our little home in Paris during out week stay. It was comfortable and charming. We would stay here during our next trip to Paris.
