The location is unbeatable: it's very central and close to several metro stations and bus stops, and there are lots of bakeries, restaurants, supermarkets, and shops nearby. We were very happy with the bakery Les Petits Pains Ronds that's just 2 blocks away, and it was very convenient to eat breakfast in the apartment every morning.
The apartment is a very efficient and practical use of space. The only caveats that might be helpful for future guests are that:
- The brick floors are inherently impossible to keep as clean as hardwood or carpeting. To be clear: the apartment had definitely been cleaned. We were careful to open windows to keep the humidity down after showers, but it would be good for the edges of the shower to be recaulked.
- There is some noise from the street as would be expected since this is a first floor apartment in the heart of the city.
- Note that there isn't any air conditioning. This was fine for the time of year that we visited, but it's good for others to know what to expect.
We really enjoyed our stay, and as I mentioned above, the location and convenience are amazing.
