Maud’s apartment was lovely. She was an excellent communicator and very helpful. The apartment was very clean and was well equipped with everything we needed. We even did laundry! The location is good. It is not quite central in the Marias, about a 15-20 minute walk, but definitely near lots of shops, restaurants and grocery stores. The apartment is in an absolute charming building with good stairs and an elevator. Maud has renovated the apartment so tastefully. All the finishings are perfect for a Parisian getaway. It is a few blocks away from a Main Street, so it is not too loud. It was nice to have the windows open, but also when you closed them they blocked out noise great at night for sleeping. She also has blackout curtains in the bedroom and the most amazingly soft bed linens :)
A few recommendations for those coming for a quick vacation trip: lots of Fran prix’s near by (grocery stores), lots of great boulangeries near by, definitely go to Le Marche Bastile that is every Thursday and Sunday just down the street. A very fun coffee shop just a block away is Back in Black. A very fun hidden speak easy and great cocktail bar is Candelaria. Also highly recommend biking to the Eiffel Tour, through the Marias, or along Canal St. Martin.
