My husband and I had an excellent 3 week stay at John's apartment. It is an excellent location to explore all the major sites in Paris. We actually rarely took the metro and walked everywhere...this is totally doable given the location...you can be in the middle of it all within a 30 min walk. The neighbourhood was excellent and felt very safe....access to grocery store 2 min walk away and lots of bakeries. The apartment is like a glorified hotel room but considering prices in Paris it was worth it! Extremely comfortable bed (change of linens provided) and huge bath towels (a second set was also provided). Kitchen is adequate...the basics are provided including coffee makers and kettle, toaster, microwave and small fridge. There is a small cafe table and 2 chairs which was nice for eating at. Closet storage space was a little minimal for our clothing but we were travelling with quite a bit of stuff. Washroom is nice and hair dryer is provided ...the shower head is not mounted on the wall which was a little cumbersome. Laundry mat is less than 5 min walk down the street and was never very busy. This is a ground level apartment and the door opens to the street, there was never any issues with this and we felt very safe (family oriented neighbourhood). When the windows were ajar you of course could hear the street noise but once we closed them the noise was minimal and you couldnt hear anything when sleeping as we turned on the fan that was provided for white noise. There are large floor to celing windows which provide nice natural light when black out curtains are pushed to the side but the windows are frosted glass so no-one can see inside the apartment and you cannot see outside unless you open the door. The tv was great, nice and big, and the internet was fast and consistent. The apartment was super clean upon our arrival...and there is a vaccum and cleaning supplies under the sink so I could give the apartment a quick weekly rub down as we were there for 3 weeks. We had a wonderful time in Johns apartment and would highly recommend it. John was also very fast to reply to us when we had a question.
