This apartment was a wonderful home base for our week-long stay in Paris. It can comfortably accommodate 5 people. (Be advised that there is one queen bed, one double bed, and two twin beds. The double bed would be a bit of a squeeze for two people. We had one couple sharing two of the smaller bedrooms, which are across the hall from each other.) The open living area is spacious, sunny, and was very comfortable for our entire group of 4 adults and 1 child. Our favorite aspects of the apartment were the gorgeous terrace (we dined outside every night), modern and well-equipped bathrooms, and the airiness and ventilation provided by the many windows. One drawback to our stay was the heat—it was August, it was typically hot, and there is no A.C. Open windows cooled the place down quickly with evening breezes. The other drawback was the street noise. These two go hand-in-hand, since we kept windows open at night to let in cooler air, but then had to deal with the late-night noise from neighboring restaurants and motorcycles driving down the street. If it is not hot and the windows are closed, noise is not a problem at all.
There are two metro stops a short walk away, and a grocery store is literally around the corner. The convenience of this location is superb.
Two things not clear in the listing that you may find helpful to know: the second bathroom has the toilet in a room separate from the shower/sink (it’s truly a “water closet”), and there is a washer/dryer combo unit in the master bathroom, with detergent provided.
We made some great memories during our 8 days in this apartment and are very grateful to Sarah and her family for sharing their lovely home with us.
