I accidentally wrote a novel below, but to quickly summarize everything - if this space is available for the dates that you need, I highly recommend you book this one while it’s available. It’s a wonderful apartment in (what is in my opinion) one of the best neighborhoods in the city.
Our Review:
This space far exceeded our expectations. We (2 people) spent one month here and it was beyond perfect. The space is small, but is well laid out and has everything you need (hot plate, pots pans, mini fridge, kettle, towels, hair dryer, etc)
The location and view are both phenomenal. You have a view of Sacré-Cœur from the window and balcony. It’s on the 6th floor, but the elevator is very large for Paris standards.
The location is a 1 minute walk from the canal, about a 2 minute walk to the nearest metro. There are multiple bakeries, shops, and cafes right outside your doorstep. The best part is that, although you’re in the middle of a busy neighborhood with tons going on, the apartment is extremely quiet because it faces the courtyard.
Gilles is a wonderful host. He did a great job showing us where everything was and made sure we were comfortable with the space. He even let us borrow his vacuum a few times (since we stayed for a month it was great having that available).
I did have to do some work while I was here, so for anyone who is relying on that, know that the Wi-Fi is very reliable and extremely fast.
If we’re ever back in the city again this will be the first place we check to see if it’s available. Thank you Gilles!
