First, I cannot emphasize enough how fantastic this location is. Not only are you in the heart of the Latin Quarter, steps away from Notre Dame and Shakespeare and Company, but you’re surrounded by great restaurants, bakeries, cheese shops, etc. There are multiple metro stops close by, and you’re also ten minutes from Jardin du Luxembourg, fifteen minutes from the Louvre, and so on. If you’re a tourist looking for a home base, you’d be hard pressed to do better.
The place itself is as depicted, with a functional kitchen, a bedroom, and a pull-out couch in the living area. It’s comfortable for a family of four. There’s a house manual that explains how everything works, and the hosts are quick to respond to questions. The one thing to keep in mind is that the elevator is small, and located on the second floor. We had to carry our stroller up a flight of stairs when we went out with the kids.
Overall this is a fantastic property. We’d definitely stay again on our next trip to Paris.
