I spent three weeks at Stephane’s apartment with my wife and two sons, 12 and 15. The apartment was superb. The living room is spacious and allowed us to relax together. The dining table is comfortable and large and was perfect for many meals. The kitchen is well equipped, dishwasher is quite and efficient. The bedrooms are spacious and all beds including the pull out sofa bed are comfortable. The air conditioning was great, quite and powerful. Showers have great water flow. Two toilets was essential for us and made life easy!
The location of the apartment is also great. Right next to a metro and 10 minute walk from many others, we were able to easily get anywhere in the center of the city within 30 minutes. The neighborhood is full of outstanding restaurants and bakeries, and 2 blocks from the apartment is market aligre, which I visited often for fresh produce, cheese, meats, wines. The neighborhood doesn’t feel touristy and is a great break after visiting all the main attractions.
Some cons, which are really minor, are a spotty WiFi. If you intend to work while in the apartment, the WiFi may cause you difficulties. The stairs, as others have mentioned, are not appropriate for anyone with balance issues or very elderly. But it’s two short flights up and it’s so easy to come in and out of the apartment. We had no troubles.
In short, we loved the apartment and would highly recommend it. Thank you Stephane for a wonderful stay.
