This is a small and cosy apartment in an old building at the top of 6 flights (18 to 20 steps each) of a wooden circular staircase. A great view of Paris rooftops. Window is East facing so lovely and sunny in the morning! A lift is being constructed at the moment which will make it so much better. At the moment I would say that it is better suited to younger, fitter people than us! It was a tiring climb after a day’s walking around Paris.
Lila greeted us and showed us the facilities in the apartment. An oven, dishwasher, washing machine, TV (none of which we used) coffee machine, orange juice squeezer, oranges in the fridge, coffee pods, jams. The bed is small, I would say 1.5 rather than double, but this was made clear in advance.
Great location for 30 minutes walk to the Louvre or Pont Neuf, 5 minutes to Canal St Martin, 8 minutes to Gare du Nord, lots of good restaurants nearby, plus shops.
Lila was fantastic at keeping in touch right from the moment of booking and answering any questions immediately via email while we were there.
