This apartment was fantastic and my boyfriend and I had a really great time in Paris. It's literally a block from the metro, and it's just perfect for our stay. Bed was super comfy, there was enough space for both of us in this studio apartment, and the kitchen handled our needs. Shower with good water pressure (I'm a stickler for a good shower haha), the bathroom in the hallway situation was not an issue at all for us. It's on the 5th floor with no elevator, so that was a serious hike a couple times a day, but the apartment was worth it. I really loved the style of the apartment, so many memories and photos of art and culture, so much better than staying in a stale hotel room. We didn't get to meet Benjamin but we easily got access to the apartment and our communication up until the trip was very helpful. He left us a map which we used like crazy, and a bunch of other programs and booklets about the area. Wifi was on point, and we really just had a fantastic time made even better by this awesome apartment. The neighborhood itself was really good, a lot around and going on. We found a bunch of good restaurants in the area and nightlife during the week. We easily got in and out of the center of the city, Paris's metro is really easy to navigate, so if this is in the right area for you, I highly recommend staying here. Thanks to Benjamin for offering up his awesome space for our trip, we're really happy we got to stay there.
