Dec. 2014
This beautiful and comfortable apartment is the perfect place to stay in Paris. It is very roomy. The woman who let us in was very helpful and handled the checkin and checkout professionally. She kindly adjusted the check in/out times around our arrival and departure reservations. A notebook provided great documentation for the appliances, connecting to the cable service, and much more. We were in Paris over the New Year holiday, Dec. 2014 for one week.
The street is busy in daytime, but the apartment is quiet because of the thick walls of the building and double glazed windows. The kitchen and bathroom are located along a separate hallway from the bedrooms, so it is easy for sleepers not to be disturbed. Bedrooms are large and quiet with heavy drapes to keep out the light and windows that face out to a courtyard. Queen bed in one, twins in the second are comfortable. The kitchen is large, modern, and well equipped. The security is great. It is layered with a locked street entry, courtyard entry to the building that is locked at night and on weekends, and the massive apartment door has heavy locks. WiFi and television worked well. The washer and dryer are located in the large bathroom. A gas on-demand water heater provides plenty of hot water.
The location is very convenient. Metro and bus on the same block get you anywhere. There is a taxi stand next to the Bastille Monument and a huge Sunday/Thursday Market nearby there as well. A bank with an ATM is next to the Metro stop and a boulangerie very close by. The neighborhood is full of restaurants and many shops. Place des Vosges is a large park with a playground and is a short walk away.
Go to Paris and stay here!
