Ah my cute apartment in Paris! I stayed here for 6 weeks this summer and it was so sweet. So here is a list below of things to note:
PROS
1) Clean apartment
2) Your neighbors are quiet
3) No insects unless you leave the window open you may have a fly.
4) The water is hot
5) Good water pressure
6) Bed is medium firm
7) You have a crock pot!
8) You have a blender
9) The area is safe as you have two doors to enter before the apt.
10) Host has a CO2/smoke detecter
11) There is a full length mirror built into two of the armoires.
THINGS TO KNOW
- You don't have closet room here - so you can hang your clothes on a door
- This is a 4-floor walk-up apartment (no elevator)
- This is vintage furniture and delicate so be aware to take care
- The shower head is the one typical of Europe - where you have a hose.
- Your stove is an induction type - works well.
- You may hear some noise from the courtyard at night
- The apartment stays at a decent temperature, but have a small fan for summer.
- Internet works fine.
- The neighborhood was safe and I had no problems. It looks sketchy outside but that is the 18th for you. I was definitely bothered by men at all times. Just wear your headphones, keep your head up, wear sunglasses, and ignore their comments.
- Your nearest metro is Chateau Rouge.
Marine - I would suggest you to type the instructions to the washing machine, also the Internet code would be good to type as it is so long.
