My boyfriend and I stayed in Sarah's apartment for a week. It is located a short walk from 2 different metro stops, which made getting all around Paris incredibly easy. There are a number of cute eateries on the block, from tacos to pizza to vegetarian, and more. Turn down the closest boulevard by the arc and you have even more options.
The residence is on a busy street but tucked away enough to offer privacy. I noticed no noise from the city below during my stay.
Sarah greeted me upon arriving and provided plenty of information about everyday household affairs (keys, cooking, laundry, etc.) She was friendly and super responsive from booking to check-out.
We had a wonderful stay at her apartment, and this is a great find for laid-back, low-maintenance guests. I say low-maintenance because the door gets a bit stuck and requires an extra push, there were some issues with hot water running out, no A/C, and there is an exhaustive climb up 4 flights of uneven stairs. None of these things detracted from the overall stay in our opinion, but it didn't go unnoticed and I think some guests might find the combination of these factors mildly off-putting.
However, I want to end the review on a high-note because we found this listing relatively late during peak vacation season and it provided us with a pleasant and relaxing home base after many exciting treks across an incredible city with endless opportunities for fun. Simply kicking off your shoes, letting in a cool breeze through the windows, and taking in the sounds and atmosphere of the vibrancy around you is a wonderful way to end the day--especially with a bottle of wine!
