Pros:
1. Andrea is very nice and helpful.
2. Apartment was clean.
3. Kitchen was well-stocked and functional for cooking.
4. Location is wonderful for exploring Montmartre by foot.
5. Views from the windows are truly breathtaking.
6. The apartment has very good ventilation with the ceiling windows. Having fresh air is very nice.
7. Plenty of nice blankets and pillows.
Cons:
1. The attic ceiling is very difficult to deal with. We were hunched over the whole time trying not to hit our heads; still, I smacked my head on the beams three times. I don't know how a person taller than 5'10" can stay in this apartment. Our necks were sore from having to hunch over all week.
2. Hand-held shower is also very impractical and difficult to use; the hose is not long enough to use the shower head while standing up, but sitting down or squatting to shower is very uncomfortable. Plus, you cannot put the shower head down while washing yourself because there is no shower door or curtain, so you have to turn the water on and off several times while showering. This element of the stay caused a great deal of stress.
3. Bed mattress has no support. Our backs were in pain every morning.
4. Place du Tertre - where the apartment is located - is a very popular tourist attraction; the moment you step outside the apartment building, there are literally thousands of people. We were accosted by aggressive portraitists and restaurant waiters several times as we came and went from the apartment. This becomes tiresome when you're staying for a week or more.
Tip:
Bring ear plugs if you like to sleep with windows open; the street noise can be very loud at night.
