Stayed there for a whole week. The location is amazing. Bus and subway stations less than 3 minutes away, and you can visit a lot of places on foot (and know some places you wouldn’t know if you take the subway). Less than 15 minutes from Louvre, 15~20 minutes to Pantheon, Notre Dame and Jardin de Luxembourg, less than 40 minutes to Arch de Trioumph (with a really nice walk inside the Jardin des Tuileries, I recomend).
A great neighborhood, albeit a bit expensive. You can pick up some useful things in a Monoprix that you can go in like 5 minutes, or a Carrefour (a bit cheaper) in less than 10 minutes.
As for the studio, considering you won’t spend a lot of time at the place, it has everything you need. You can cook a full meal, it has a washing machine, two beds. I didn’t sleep in the upstairs bed because, as a guy who loves to use the bathroom during the night, it can be a bit tricky to climb up and down those stairs while sleepy. But it is a really cozy place, impossible to deny it. Using the sofa bed can turn the studio into a small place, but it’s not a trouble.
The only thing that was a Con is that a smell of cigarettes was in the studio during the whole week I spent there. Incenses and candles (that can be bought at Monoprix or anywhere else) fix this problem really quick, but I know it can really bother some people.
Georges is a great host. Really easy to talk, sympathetic, and he’s almost always available if you need anything. I discovered that my train to Paris was cancelled a day before my arrival, and I got a new train that would arrive in Paris a lot earlier than before. He told me that it wasn’t a problem at all, told me to drop my luggage there and recommended me some places to visit around the place, while he finished cleaning the studio.
I believe this was my experience in the studio
