we had a wonderful time staying at the nest, minus the unfortunate terrorist attacks that happened in paris while we were there. rachel and simon checked on us and made sure we were okay, which was very nice, and the free wifi made it easy to communicate with family back home. the place was bright, clean, and perfect for what we needed. the neighborhood was great, as it was more for locals and less for tourists, yet close enough to everything one may want to see while visiting paris. if we were to offer any negative with the nest, it is the smaller sized shower and bathroom sink, but by no means is it worth not staying there. we'd definitely stay there again.
