Richard was a great host with very quick communication and accommodating our early check in request. The apartment is very spacious and we liked the style and comfortable beds. Unfortunately the lift does not work and it’s five flights up - not ideal when travelling with children and have so much luggage and a stroller. The area was not the Parisian environment that we were hoping for - yes it’s multicultural but as a family we did not feel safe to return to the apartment after dark so we spent our nights in. The constant sirens and noise from the street below was hard to ignore although the double glazing and shutters help somewhat.
