What a fantastic place to stay. Bright, clean, trendy and even homely. And the location is ideal; come out of the door, turn a couple of corners and you're right in the heart of things. Communication with Numa was better than we expected and he even rang us on the day to check that we'd got in ok and talked us through how to use the espresso machine etc. I would definitely recommend that anyone stops here. We're very jealous and didn't want to leave.
Things worth noting;
Though it's on the fifth floor you never really noticed the climb and the flat was worth it but it is a lot of stairs.
Parking through the week is expensive on the streets outside but we got a deal on a website called http://www.parkingsdeparis.com and parked up in the car park at Gare d'Austerlitz-Salpétrière-Italie which worked out at about €14 or £10 per day and it was all secure.
The flat has a Velib point round the corner and these are a great way of getting round and it's also right next to a metro.
This all makes it a very practical place to stay.
Loved it.
Thanks
