This is a lovely apartment in a nice part of Paris close to Voltaire Metro and Bus #46(Chemin Vert) Also Richard Lenoir Metro! The apartment is bright, clean and stocked with many things! Glasses, plates, peeler, pots/pans, a potato masher... all there... make coffee before you go if you like... cook a meal or two if you are tired or to save money. Sleeps 3-4 (two in a large cozy be, one or two on a pull out couch in a separate room. Two rooms ..a liv and a bedroom, small kitchen and bath. Yes small bath, but workable and bright/ clean. The bed is more comfortable than the couch so get dibs! The apartment is cheerful and decorated with African art, very calm and pretty... wood floors throughout and good breezes from many windows. There is a floor fan if it gets warm; we were in July and hot but we were out most of the day and things cool in the night, the fan was nice to have as well! Little clothes washer was a god send! Holds quite a bit and works like a dream... no dryer, but plenty of drying racks that worked well and everything dried overnight or sooner... Very easy to live in with elevator, minutes to bus or metro, and all the items needed. A Carefour minimart was NEXT door, and was great for any last minute need or want (we bought food to cook pasta, shrimp, fruit, wine... they have more than you expect, and Daniel was great help all around at the store... all were kind and helpful) We supplemented with toilet paper, garlic, paper towels when we ran out of Dani's supplies and wanted to leave as found! If you want beach sized towels, get some at a tourist shop, we found towels small.. but that is all over Paris! (Suggestions: larger pillow for the couch, bigger towels and defrost the frig for icemaking! )
Bottom line: We had a lovely stay in Dani's apartment, and Dani herself is a joy and a very kind, helpful gal! We thank you so much for the help with the train to the village 40 minutes away. The two main rooms are NOT small for Paris standards at all, and much better space than any hostel, and the overall experience is very much like staying at a friends home in central Paris while they are traveling. Everything in the kitchen worked great ! Lovely place and host. Merci Dani!
Yes each night the E. Tower does its light show and I watched it from my couch bed when we were there and not out dancing , eating, seeing the city. Dani knows the city well and you can ask her anything, she was very attentive and responsive to all questions! Home away from home in Paris!
