Marion and her friend met us outside the apartment and helped us with all our luggage, which was very appreciated. Her place was in an amazing location in Bastille and was extremely easy to get all over Paris with the metro near by. Bastille itself is a wonderful neighbourhood with fantastic restaurants, pubs and clubs and all your grocerry and shopping needs within a short walk.
The apartment is a lot smaller than the photos show and we struggled at times with three people. The pull out sofa bed wasn't the most comfortable but with a one bedroom apartment it's the only way to fit more than two people; it just means that your living space is also someone's bedroom. There weren't enough pillows for three people and after asking a few times, Marion went out and bought new ones then dropped them to us which was greatly appreciated.
If you don't mind a cramped living space, then this apartment is absolutely wonderful!
