The location proved perfect for getting around Paris with ease and we particularly loved the little park opposite and the fact that the building didn’t overlook a road.
The apartment was small but cosy - apart from two nights when it was snowing and the heating went off! The bathroom towels were fluffy and large and the WiFi worked well. Although space was tight, it worked for four of us with a large sofa bed and separate bedroom with good storage cupboards. It was also incredibly quiet at night, especially given the apartment was at the back of the building, but the downside was that there was very little natural light - it overlooked a courtyard/stairwell area. During the day, unfortunately, the building was undergoing major renovation work, which meant there was some noise (we’d been pre-warned about this) but the main concern was the dust that settled inside the apartment - and the vacuum cleaner didn’t work! The kitchen was compact and has everything you needed, except we didn’t manage to work out how to turn on the oven. The overhead shower in the bathroom didn’t appear to work, either, although the hand-held one did. The apartment had lovely high ceilings and some nice original features but was in need of a general overhaul, although for the price, it was very reasonable! Michael answered most of our question and was very accommodating to our early checkin and late check out.
