A fantastic Parisian getaway for a couple! This apartment is ideally located on a quiet, residential street just a half block off of the Boulevard Saint- Germain, which full of high-end shops and a variety of good restaurants. It is an incredibly walkable area, (easy walk to the Louvre, Musee d' Orsay, Luxembourg Gardens, and to Notre Dame. We even walked to the Eiffel Tower, but that is a bit more of a hike!) and it is just steps from Metro stop and a well-attended taxi stand. Exploring Paris is a breeze from here!
The apartment is on the 6th floor of a quiet building with discrete and secure entrance. It is served by a tiny but reliable elevator just big enough for two adults or one adult and a suitcase.
The apartment is spacious by European standards and has ample closet space for a stay of longer length. It has a very comfortable living/dining room and a well equipped kitchen (refrigerator, electric in fiction cooktop, microwave, conventional oven). It also has a Nespresso machine and an electric kettle for tea. There is a Monoprix grocery store just around the corner, so stocking up the pantry is easy! There is even a wheeled grocery carrier in one of the closets for your convenience!
The windows of the living/dining room open onto a narrow balcony over the street. The view is only of the buildings on Rue du Dragon, but it is still a nice thing to enjoy a glass of wine and some fresh air from one's own private balcony!
Importantly, the kitchen also has modern and functioning dishwasher and a combination clothes washer/dryer. We made great use of the he laundry machine and it allowed us to pack half as much clothing as we would otherwise. The made traveling that much easier!
The queen sized bed is comfortable and because the bedroom faces the interior courtyard of the building instead of the street, it is always quiet and peaceful. The bathroom is modern, well lit and and well-equippedIt has a tub with a shower screen. It is a bit of a step in and out of the tub, but it is manageable.
You won't regret renting this apartment. We certainly would stay here again!
