Have you ever dreamt of waking up in a bed with a view all over Paris?
Haven't you even dreamt of taking a shower with a view of the Eiffel Tower?
Can you imagine having your first coffee with a view of Notre-Dame, Sacre Coeur, and Panthéon and your nightcap with a view of the illuminated city?
All of this is possible in Jean-Claude's apartment on the 19th floor of a building in the 12th arrondissement. All the windows - from the bedroom to the living room to the bathroom - have a view of the whole city and the terrace that extends around the apartment as well.
It's hard to look away and you have to remember to get out and explore the city. ;-)
The apartment is conveniently located, especially for those arriving and departing from the Gare de Lyon. The only thing I’d draw attention to is that the district is not really in the center of the city and not really upscale, there are low income housing blocks in the neighbourhood. But we did feel safe coming home at night. There are bakeries, a very good cheese shop, supermarkets and the metro station only a stone's throw away.
The apartment is rather small, but very well furnished. The bedroom is only as big as the bed (you can't walk around the bed), but the bed is big and comfortable. We slept very well. And the apartment is absolutely quiet!
In the large wall cupboards in the living room you can conveniently stow all your suitcases and clothes, so you always have enough space in the apartment. The bathroom is a decent size.
The apartment is very practical and modern. You lack nothing.
Jean-Claude, who is not on site himself, answered messages immediately and organised everything perfectly. Check-in instructions were super detailed and helpful. You have to get the key from the guard in the neighbouring house, that worked perfectly. Monsieur Francesco was also there immediately when we left to hand over the keys.
We would definitely recommend the apartment, as we feel so lucky to have found this little treasure in the beautiful town of Paris.
