Marie-Noëlle’s apartment is well-located, 5 minutes from Montparnasse station and a huge Monoprix supermarket. Attractions such as the Musée Bourdelle, Tour Montparnasse and Jardins de Luxembourg are all within walking distance and the area is well-connected by public transport too.
Be aware that you have to collect the keys to the apartment from a restaurant 5 minutes’ walk away. This was fine for me but if you are travelling with children or a lot of luggage, or have mobility issues, this might not work for you.
The apartment building is very secure (2 codes to get in) and has a modern elevator to access the 3rd floor apartment.
The apartment itself is a cosy studio with a proper bed (not a fold-out), bath and shower, as well as gas hobs on which to cook (though no microwave), and a TV with DVD player for evenings in. Walls are thin and you can hear neighbours, but overall the apartment was convenient and felt homely.
Marie-Noëlle was also an excellent host who provided all required information efficiently and responded quickly.
I would recommend this apartment for a couple of nights’ stay; it’s fine for business travellers who just want to stay in during the evening to work (WiFi signal is strong) or relax.
Thanks again Marie-Noëlle for a great stay.
