What an eclectic stay in Montmartre! First off, Julien is a wonderful host. He went above and beyond to allow check-in to be seamless. (Thank you for that!) Overall, we really enjoyed our time.
Things that made it pleasant — The water pressure is great, and there are couple close metro lines that get you to downtown area. There’s a bus line that drops you off on the street. It’s not in the heart of Paris, but the transportation options are good. We also did a day trip to London and having the Eurostar train station walking distance was convenient. The famous church is literally around the corner. Julien also thoughtfully gave us a bottle of wine to drink.
Things that were less pleasant — the place was a bit dusty so I kept sneezing every time I entered the house. There was a homeless person that would sleep in front of the main door and that kinda freaked me out in the beginning. I got used to it at the end lol. During the week, there’s construction happening so if you’re a light sleeper, be prepared to wake up early. I’m a heavy sleeper but my mom is a light sleeper. We got used to it at the end or just left the house early.
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and am very thankful for Julien! Merci!!
