amazing location, esp if traveling w/ children. parc monceau is w/in a 5 min walk so that's game-changing, esp if you have young children. and even if you don't, what a terrific way to start the day. there's a nearly supermarket, many excellent restaurants & bistros, wine shops, boulangeries, cheese shops ( all w/in a 3 min walk!), essentially everything you have come to expect of the charm & convenience of Paris. there's some noise in the evening from nearby restaurants, but it's a subdued, welcome-to-the-city-of-lights chatter that's far more charming than it is irritating. the physical space is more than enough for a family of 4 and with the addition of a small child or even two, but will get a bit cramped if you add another adult. the neighbors are friendly & kind. the neighborhood is, well, perfect. there's an excellent and functional washer/dryer that was a life-saver after a morning or evening stroll in parc monceau. bottom line: this is certainly an accommodation, despite some criticisms, that my family & I would consider returning to.
this is a managed accommodation, which means that the traditional airbnb home-away-from-home feel that is typical of accommodations in other cities doesn't quite apply. the check-in/check-out process took place at a nearby hotel (10 min walk; 5 min drive), so going to a hotel to pick-up/drop-off the key late at night or early in the morning is inconvenient.
the apartment smelled like paint, a noxious smell of paint for 4 nights that was not pleasant, albeit tolerable. the listing needs to be update, "regarding the AC, it is not functional." not so much a criticism as a perhaps a minor cultural difference, this is NOT a 2 bathroom home it's a 1/2 bathroom + 1/2 bathroom = 1 bathroom home, if my math(s) is still accurate! there's no real quick guide to the apartment (not really critical, but it would be helpful) to include wifi setting, how to adjust the heat. in short, it these issues can be fixed or aren't too concerning to you & your family, this can be considered 5-star accommodation.
so, would we return if these issues were not addressed? yes, but I might look for alternative nearby options. would we return if these issues were addressed? certainly, w/o even going through the trouble of looking at other listings b/c the happiness needle would move very little, all things considered.
