Our stay was great at this apartment. We went beginning of November in the cold/rainy season. Perfect weather to open beautiful French windows periodically for fresh, cool air and city noises, but it was never cold enough for us to turn on heat. Perfect!
We were a family of four, 2 Adults and 2 teenagers. Both bedrooms slept very well. No complaints from my husband/me in the larger bedroom or from my daughters in the shared second bedroom. Everyone slept well and beds we’re comfortable. The stairs leading up to the apartment very narrow and the water closet (toilet is very tight space) were fine for our family but probably not good for an elderly couple. We ate dinner twice at our apartment and cooked breakfast there. Induction stove worked great and dishwasher was nice to have. Washed clothes-washing machine worked well. Couldn’t really figure our dryer, so we just air dried and took longer but I think that was our user error.
Could be a little loud in the evenings, but windows were thick and very good at cutting down the noise. Music always stopped around 11 if it was on so that didn’t really bother us. Take a set of ear plugs just incase you are a light sleeper or early to bed, but noise was not an issue for us.
The location was perfect! Walking distance to 3 very convenient metro stops, walking distance to so many things/neighborhoods without even using the metro. Grocery, restaurants, cafes, wine, and pastry shops right there!
Communication was great for us. They always responded within an hour (sometimes faster). Only issue we had was when we were leaving for airport in the morning before 9am, we couldn’t get the lock box to open with the code provided to return the key securely and their office didn’t open until 9am so we had to hide the key because we couldn’t reach anyone in off hours. In hindsight, we could have tried the key code the day prior to make sure it worked, so I recommend that for the next person. :)
FYI:
-take type E/F adapters.
-Coffee machine was a Nespresso maker.
Overall, it was a great stay! We would stay there again.
