This was a great flat in a good area for accessing fun and historic area of Paris. Pictures are fairly accurate. The living room door opens directly onto the street so easy access with a single step into flat. Heavy curtains provide privacy and some sound-weather control, but you definitely hear street noises while in LR. Bedroom is at the back and very quiet. Living room is all purpose with the small gallery kitchenette, and small eating table. There are three steps up from LR to bedroom, with the bathroom on level of first step. So although no stairs to access the apartment, you have to go up/down steps to access LR, BR, and bathroom. Not a problem for us, but may be for others. Very clean, small washing machine to do a quick load of laundry but the “dryer” is a rack to air dry clothes. Lots of hangers which was good for unpacking clothes and for hanging freshly washed clothes up to dry. Just know you need to allow time for clothes to dry (at least overnight) if repacking them. There is a laundromat with dryers 3 doors down so can also do laundry there. As others have noted the shower floor doesn’t have enough of a slant (and no shower door) so water can overflow onto bathroom floor. Tip - we found that aiming the rainshower head towards back corner, then only turning top handle to the “11 o’clock” position allowed for enough water to shower but not too much to overflow. Overall this was a great apartment, clean, good bed and linens, with easy access to metro stations, Bon Marche and many restaurants in area, and to sights of Paris. Great for 2 people!
