Please read the reviews from the summer of 2018 and 2017. All are still true. It is a wonderful location it is a big space and the kitchen is marvelous. the bathrooms and water pressure are great. The bed linens were clean. It has been a long time since it was deeply cleaned and things are starting to get dated. It seems that there are several groups that come through in July and August and their experience match ours. Christian is wonderful and the representatives from the management company were responsive and communicated well. We’re just not sure that they’re doing their best for Christian. If it is hot out at all you will have to open the windows and it will be noisy and smoky from people walking by on the street. There is a clinic nearby with ambulances that run do it consistently, the trash trucks come by for a couple of hours on Tuesday mornings, followed by the street sweepers and proceeded by people rolling out their bins.. You also have the university nearby and there are students that enjoy themselves more loudly than others on Friday and Saturday nights. And there are also motorbikes that race up and down the main road outside it seems to be a popular area for revving the engine of high-speed motorcycles. If it is cool out in the windows are closed you will hear very little of this and the smoking in the voices from the street level should not be a problem. There are wonderful restaurants and chocolate shops and bakeries all around as well as two or three supermarkets within five minutes walk. The metro C line is closed at least until the end of 2018. But the point alma station right across the bridge is very convenient as well as the station at invalides. I would highly recommend that you bring a fan unless an update as provided that the management company has purchased some.
