Me and 3 other friends of mine came to Paris and stayed at François’s apartment and we enjoyed our stay very much!
We were pleasantly surprised by how accurate the pictures of the place were. The apartment was spotlessly clean, very neat and modern, and not to mention quite large and spacious for an apartment in Paris.
This place is definitely worth it’s value and is also extremely well located, with several cafes, supermarkets, local shops, etc 2 minutes walking distance. It is also very easy to find and is on a peaceful street.
The amenities were fantastic with all the kitchen appliances available as well as towels, 2 flat screen televisions in each room and even masks, gloves and hand sanitiser which are very useful at this time.
I also highly recommend using the electric scooters or bikes in Paris seeing as using the metro is currently for essential use only and they are located all over Paris, very cheap and easy to use.
The only downsides were there was no kitchen towel to dry dishes, so we wasted lots of paper towels and also the apartment is rather cold in the basement floor with no heating (that we could find). Obviously this was fine for summer, but night times were quite chilly and would not be pleasant during winter. There are also no windows in the downstairs bedroom which was great for us, but if you prefer daylight in a bedroom then this would not be the apartment for you.
On a final note, could you please also tell new guests to log out of the Netflix accounts on the TV because I forgot to when I left and someone else is now using my account. I feel this may be the same for past tenants, so this would be helpful!
Thank you Francois for hosting us and we hope to stay with you again!
