This was the perfect 'home away from home' for our vacation. We were 5 of us and had the entire flat to ourselves for 10 days.
Positives:
— Location - it is relatively central and just a minute away from the M1 metro line1 that runs very frequently. Just a few stations away from all the main attractions.
— Size/space - worked very well for us. It was spacious enough to accommodate all of us… especially since we were staying for 10 days.
— Bright and airy - being on the 4th floor in a residential area with large windows, we had a lot of sunlight and fresh air.
— Good well equipped kitchen - often we cooked our own meals in the evenings. There are a couple of supermarkets in the area - a Franprix downstairs and a large Monoprix (our favourite) just 5 minutes walking distance that had great French produce as well as all the other normal stuff. There is also a nice Bakery a minute away for fresh Baguettes and Croissants to start your day. We did not go out for dinners there but if you wanted to, there are quite a few within walking distance. One French restaurant downstairs looked very appealing as it was always crowded with locals.
— Good fast and reliable wifi - was important for us as we had to get some work done as well.
— Good clean bathroom - as in the images its a modern bathroom that functioned well.
— Good comfortable beds - after all that walking around in beautiful Paris this helped us recover.
— Safe neighbourhood - felt completely safe coming back late at night.
— Great hosts - they welcomed us into their home, accommodated for our arrival time and were very quick to respond to any query we had. As it was unusually cold, they pinged us saying we should use the heating. Since we were out of the flat most of the time, we did not need to but found that very thoughtful of them.
Negatives:
— none really. They have clearly stated that it is on the 4th floor without elevator. It was a bit of effort with all our luggage the first time but the rest of the days it was a non-issue.
We highly recommend this place to others and will definitely book it the next time we are in Paris.
Thank you very much for letting us stay in your home.
