Positive aspects:
1. Beautiful location that is close Saint Paul shopping and public parks blooming with daffodils and other flowers (in Spring time). There is also a great little restaurant directly across the street (Le Sevigne) which has delicious banana nutella crepes.
2. Generously sized and comfortable bed with nice linens. Perfect size for two adults.
3. Elegant bathroom space with claw foot tub and separate shower.
4. Has a washing machine, dishwasher, and air conditioner. Also, they provide a small tower fan which comes in handy for warm nights. Be sure to get a full tutorial when you arrive on how to operate the air conditioner as it is not intuitive.
4. Plenty of dishes and pots and pans available to use in the kitchen.
Negative Aspects:
1. The storage space to put away your clothes was less than ideal for two people because the closet on the right-side of the bed (as displayed in the pictures ) is boarded up and therefore unable to be used. Also the beautiful antique dresser/desk is difficult to get into and out of because it requires a key to open each drawer individually. This is an elegant piece of furniture, but just not very practical if you are in a rush.
2. Be aware that you will only be given one set of towels (a small towel for hair and a larger towel for body) per person. If you need additional towels then it will cost 20 euros extra. I was not aware of this ahead of time and was dissapointed that I would be charged for extra towels.
3. The shower door is made out of wood which has been slightly warped from past usage. Because of this the shower door does not fully close.
4. The windows are South facing which means lots of direct sunlight. This would not be a problem except you only have two options during the day - close the black-out curtains or keep the curtains open and get direct sunlight. It would be a lot better if they had light filtering shear curtains as a third option so you can still have natural light, but not be blinded by it.
5. There is no water filtration system. We had to walk to the G20 market down the street several times to get filtered water. You might want to bring your own water filter.
