The building is secure and very clean. You will be responsible for letting yourself in using an access key and there will be an elevator to take you upstairs that is very nice. You will not only feel very comfortable here but you will feel very safe in this building.
The apartment is filled with wonder. Lots of books and interesting things. There are 2 bathrooms and only one with toilet. They are very roomy and the showers work very well. Good lighting and if you run out of towels there are more than enough for your stay.
If you are a family that cooks. The stove top is induction cooking (good info for US travellers) please have host explain how that works for you. There is a full size refrigerator and every pot or pan that you would need for cooking. On the street of the apartment you only have to walk a few steps to reach anything you need. If you really need a supermarket there are a few within walking distance. I did quite well just using what stores were just a few steps left or right of me. The small vegetable store has beautiful produce, cheese, olives, olive oil and fresh made fruit juice. The convenience store almost across from that has everything you need.. liquor, wine, ice cream, chips, all dairy and non dairy, dry and canned goods. Paper goods and toiletries. if you make a left after leaving the apartment a few yards away you will find freshly baked pastries and breads with lunch-to-go. Also on the street of the apartment are restaurants and bars, clothing stores and a really nice sneaker store. You will want for nothing it is all there.. even a pharmacy on both ends of the street. Do not panic if you forgot something.
Once you leave Rue des Dames you have it all. a few minutes from the apartment is the place de clichy where you can get the metro or a taxi at the taxi stand on the opposite side of the street. The metro is super easy to navigate but if that is not your thing the taxi's were 99% well informed and well priced. Only one hiccup the entire time.
I recommend this apartment because everything is so easy. Use the wifi at the apartment to plan your trips for the following day.
you will not be disappointed you booked your stay with Sylvie.
