This place is in a residential area of Paris, but located not far from the metro which will quickly take you into the city. The apartment is very secure and "safe-feeling".
The bed and hide-a-bed couch were very comfortable and exactly what we needed for a good night sleep. We especially enjoyed having roll-down shutters which kept the place very dark for sleeping in!
I was nervous after reading previous reviews about the shower. BUT IT HAS BEEN RENOVATED! There is absolutely nothing wrong with the shower now and has had the door and other pieces replaced. No problems with the bathroom at all!
The kitchen was a little dirty. The previous guests had not cleaned their plates, utensils, and pots well. Unfortunately, there was no dish soap - so we had to make a quick run to the store for soap in order to have a drink. After a quick wash, everything was great.
A couple of things could have made the stay better - dish soap, coffee mugs or tea cups (there are none), lids for the pots, a knife for chopping vegetables or cutting bread (there are no knives other than table knives). Just small things that could have made the stay better.
All in all, this is a great place and I would not hesitate to recommend it!
