Anne is awesome and so is her apartment. I felt totally at home in Anne's top floor, sunny flat. Yes! 5 flights of stairs! (All the better to work off those delicious pastries you'll indulge in)
A nice amount of space, with a terrace to enjoy a glass of wine on and watch the sun set over the roofs. There is a synagogue across the street, making the weekends full of wedding celebration and cheers. It was so lovely to listen to! It did get a bit toasty in the apartment in the heat of summer, but I doubt you'll want to spend much time inside when all of Paris is waiting for you to explore her. Super comfortable bed, lovely peaceful and yogic decor, a great kitchen and shower. There is a toaster oven, but I never used it. Since in was summer I didn't lament over not having an oven for cooking. Too hot! Did use the blender for smoothies though :) There is a washer in the bathroom, which is awesome, but makes the toilet a tad cramped (not the worst, but good to know)
Anne left an incredibly beautiful and detailed map with all her favourite places to eat and shop etc. The apartment is totally central, right around the corner from Republic and Temple metro stations and close to a few velib stations too. Right around all the best anrondisments annnnnnd THE best lemon tart you will ever experience is a 3 minute walk (Jacques Genin). You're welcome ;)
You'll love the light and peaceful quality of this apartment. Thank you Anne!
