Originally this was a very cool apartment. But it is very poorly maintained now and it is not a very pleasant experience to stay in it. Firstly - the apartment is very dirty! Every surface is covered with a thick layer of dust. The wardrobe shelves are in dust too (including hair), don't look inside the kettle, it's a bit frightening. The dishwasher and the towel dryer are out of order, the internet connection is very low, makes it difficult to use 2 iphones simultaneously. The feather pillows and the blanket are all in stains and it's strongly recommended to wash them or to change into syntetic ones. The iron leaves stains on the clothes. Very important thing: the place is ridiculously loud! It is on the first floor and the ground one is occupied by a musical school (i am a pianist myself but please!!! it was only 8.30 AM!!!) Someone on the upper levels is building a castle and they start drilling at 8AM (please, better the gammas from downstairs but from 8.30AM!). The place is small like everyone says but that was a no-problem for the 2 of us. The district is very cool, perhaps the best for a paris break. The only things that are good in the apartment are the bed itself - big and comfortable, shower (but with a broken holder so you have to hold it in hand all the time) and the heater (you won't be cold in winter). But i would not recommend to stay in this place until the owner fixes everything and starts to look after the property carefully. Thank you for your attention :))
